These delightful pancakes are perfect for those who want a quick and easy breakfast without milk or baking powder. They are light, fluffy, and can be customized with your favorite toppings!
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup water (or as needed)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (plus more for cooking)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Toppings of your choice (e.g., maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg. Add the water, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract (if using) to the egg, and mix until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. If the batter is too thick, add a little more water until you reach your desired consistency.
Step 2: Heat the Pan
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of vegetable oil to coat the surface.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
- Once the skillet is hot, 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.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 4: Serve
- Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter. Add more oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
Enjoy!
These pancakes are a simple and delicious breakfast option that can be made in no time. Enjoy your fluffy, no-milk, no-baking powder pancakes!
