Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional toppings: fresh berries, sliced bananas, maple syrup, powdered sugar, or chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4: Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 5: Pour into Baking Dish
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6: Bake
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and lightly golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
Remove the baked pancake from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, sliced bananas, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Step 8: Enjoy!
Dig in and enjoy your delicious baked pancake! This recipe is perfect for sharing and can easily be doubled for larger gatherings.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider mixing in some cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients.
- You can also add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter before baking for extra texture.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave before serving.
Enjoy your delightful baked pancake!
