Ingredients
  

Pancake Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Whisk
  • Separate bowl
  • Griddle or frying pan
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg, then stir in the milk and vegetable oil.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
Cooking
  1. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle.
  3. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serving
  1. Serve the fluffy pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. Do not overmix the batter, as this can lead to tough pancakes.
