👩🍳 How to Make Fluffy Pancakes
✅ Step 1: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
✅ Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until combined.
✅ Step 3: Combine
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix—some lumps are fine.
✅ Step 4: Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour ¼ cup of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form (about 2 minutes), then flip and cook 1–2 minutes more.
✅ Step 5: Serve
Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, nut butter, or whipped cream.

✅ Tips for the Best Pancakes
- Don’t overmix the batter—lumpy batter = fluffier pancakes
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for better rise
- Use a hot, well-greased pan to get golden edges
- Flip when bubbles form and edges look set
