Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk (any type)
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp oil (vegetable or canola oil)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Store any leftover pancake mix in an airtight container for future use.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and oil. Gradually add 1 cup of the homemade pancake mix to the wet ingredients and stir until the batter is smooth. Adjust consistency by adding more milk or mix as needed.
- Heat Pan and Cook Pancakes: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly butter the cooking surface. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
- Serve: Serve your pancakes warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your preferred toppings for a perfect breakfast.
Notes
- The pancake mix can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
- Adjust the milk amount to achieve the desired batter thickness.
- Use vegetable or canola oil, or melted butter as preferred for richer flavor.
- Make sure the skillet is properly heated before cooking to prevent sticking.
- For fluffier pancakes, do not overmix the batter; a few small lumps are fine.
