Total Time: 25 minutes

Servings: 8

Ingredients

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 large eggs, beaten

4 tablespoons butter, melted

4 tablespoons white granulated sugar

2 cups milk

fresh berries and honey, for serving(optional)

Equipment

Griddle

Whisk

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.

Step 2

Make a hole in the middle and pour in milk, egg, and butter. Stir until smooth and well combined(do not overmix).

Step 3

Heat a lightly oiled skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Use a ¼ cup to scoop the batter onto the griddle.

Step 4

Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges are dry and bubbles start to form. Then flip and cook until browned on the other side. Carry out the same process on the remaining batter.

Step 5

Serve with fresh berries and honey if desired.

Recipe Notes

1. Try not to overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter results in a tough, and dense dough, thereby making the pancakes seem rubbery.

2. Cook the pancakes slowly on medium-low heat, so they cook through and don’t get burnt in the middle.

3. Ensure that the pancakes are well cooked before flipping them on the griddle or skillet.
