# How to Make It:
01 -
Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, blend milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Combine the wet and dry ingredients to form a smooth, lump-free batter.
02 -
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
03 -
Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the heated skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes more until the underside is light golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
04 -
Top hot pancakes with whipped cream, fresh berries, and colorful sprinkles. Serve with maple syrup for added sweetness and best texture.
05 -
Store cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or freeze individually separated by parchment for up to 1 month. Reheat in a microwave for 30–40 seconds or in a skillet until warmed through.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Flaxseed or chia gel may be substituted for eggs to create a fully vegan version.
02 -
For gluten-free preparation, replace all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free blend.
03 -
Achieve maximum fluffiness by avoiding overmixing the batter and using fresh baking powder.
