Basic Pancake Recipe
- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 8
- Serves:
-
2-3
ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1⁄2 cups milk
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large eggs
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions
- Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- In another bowl, whisk the milk, butter, eggs, and vanilla.
- Pour the mixture into the large bowl and whisk just enough to combine thoroughly. (Don't over-whisk, or the pancake will be tough. It's ok if there're some lumps left in the batter. When you cook it it'll smooth out.).
- Heat the griddle until a few drops of water tossed onto the surface runs around frantically.
- Melt a pad of butter onto the griddle and, using a paper towel, rub the butter around until it evenly coats the pan and lubricates it.
- Scoop 1/3 cups of batter onto the griddle to make a pancake.
- Cook the first side until bubbles cover the pancake surface and begin to pop, then flip the pancake over.
- Once the second side has lightly browned (about half the time it takes to cook the first side), remove and serve.

I became a foodie when I went on my first ever diet. (:
I can't cook very well, because I'm always too afraid of hot oil burning me, but I love baking!
Hence you'd notice that all my recipes (and all the recipes I've saved into my cookbook) involve baking.
I hope to be able to make fantastic baked rice someday, and am always on the lookout for HEALTHY LOW-CALORIE recipes! (:
Oh, and if you know of any low-calorie indian recipes (I love Indian food, but it seems like they're all very oily and unhealthy..) do share them with me!
