Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Vanilla ice cream (melted)
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Non-stick cooking spray or butter (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the melted vanilla ice cream, milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir just until combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circle, if needed.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the ice cream pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or an extra scoop of ice cream for indulgence.
