American Pancakes

Thick, fluffy American-style pancakes made with flour, milk, and egg, cooked in a skillet until golden.

Method

  1. 01

    Mix the dry ingredients

    In a bowl, mix the wheat flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

    Ready to continue when: The dry ingredients are evenly combined, with no large clumps.

  2. 02

    Combine the wet ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk the egg with the milk and vanilla extract. Stir in the melted unsalted butter. Pour the mixture over the dry ingredients and mix just until combined; it is fine if a few small lumps remain.

    Ready to continue when: The batter is combined and thick, though a few small lumps remain.

  3. 03

    Cook the pancakes

    Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease it with some of the reserved unsalted butter. Pour in a portion of batter and cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the underside is golden. Flip and cook the other side until golden as well. Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the skillet as needed.

    Ready to continue when: Bubbles appear on each pancake before it is flipped, and both sides are golden.
