Let’s Start Cooking!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 cups milk (depends on consistency of batter)
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

• Preheat griddle to 350°F.
• In a large bowl, combine together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well mixed.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and vanilla.
• Pour liquid mixture into dry ingredients and stir. Do not over-mix, leave small lumps in the batter.
• Add in the melted butter and carefully mix into the batter being sure not to over mix.
• Once griddle is fully heated, pour batter onto griddle in desired pancake size.
• Cook 1- 2 minutes per side and let griddle reheat before pouring more batter. Time may vary depending on thickness of the pancake.
• Serve immediately with desired choice of toppings.

Additional Notes

• If you batter is too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out. I like to add close to 1 1/2 cups milk instead of the 1 1/4 cups.
• I will sometimes preheat the griddle to 370°F and then lower to 350°F when I pour the batter because the temperature will drop form the cool batter.
• Try adding some blueberries or chocolate chips into the batter before cooking to add more flavor to the pancakes.
