Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or melted butter)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional toppings: maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. This will ensure that the baking powder is evenly distributed throughout the flour.
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the baking powder to activate and will help create fluffier pancakes.
-
Preheat the Pan:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. To test if it’s ready, sprinkle a few drops of water on the surface; if they sizzle and evaporate, the pan is hot enough.
-
Cook the Pancakes:
Lightly grease the skillet with a little oil or butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
-
Flip and Finish Cooking:
Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and keep warm in a low oven if desired.
-
Serve:
Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate chips.
Enjoy your delicious, fluffy eggless pancakes! Perfect for any occasion!
