Get ready to elevate your breakfast routine with the Denison House Pancake, a timeless recipe that delivers light, fluffy pancakes with a golden finish. Made with pantry staples like all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a touch of vanilla extract, these pancakes strike the perfect balance of sweetness and richness, thanks to a splash of melted butter and a hint of sugar. What sets this recipe apart is its emphasis on achieving the ideal textureβlumps in the batter are encouraged to keep the pancakes airy and soft. With just 10 minutes of prep and 20 minutes of cook time, this versatile dish is perfect for busy mornings or leisurely weekend brunches. Top your warm, buttery pancakes with fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or your favorite toppings for a customizable and irresistible breakfast experience!
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and the egg until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula. Mix until just combined; some lumps are okay. Avoid overmixing to ensure fluffy pancakes.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and swirl to coat the surface evenly.
Once the skillet is hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancake carefully with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover lightly with aluminum foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the Denison House Pancakes warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, fresh berries, or your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
