Pancakes are often seen as a breakfast favorite, but they make an equally satisfying and comforting supper. Fluffy, golden, and soaked in warm syrup with a touch of butter melting on top, pancakes bring a cozy feeling that turns a simple evening into something special. Whether served sweet or savory, they are easy to prepare and loved by all ages.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 ¾ cups milk
¼ cup melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Maple syrup for serving
Extra butter for topping
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2–3 minutes.
Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Serve warm with butter and maple syrup.
How to Make Perfect Pancakes
Always use fresh baking powder to ensure fluffy pancakes.
Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes before cooking to allow the ingredients to blend properly.
Cook on medium heat to avoid burning the outside while the inside remains raw.
Flip only once for the best texture and even cooking.
Stack them immediately and keep covered to retain warmth.
