Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for cooking)
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 0.5 cup Fresh fruit (e.g., bananas, berries, or sliced apples)
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are fine.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to lightly grease the surface.
Using a ladle or 1/4 cup measure, pour small circles of batter onto the skillet, leaving space between each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (about 2-3 minutes).
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
Repeat with the remaining batter until all pancakes are cooked.
To assemble, cut or tear the pancakes into bite-sized pieces and place them into a bowl.
Drizzle the pancakes with maple syrup and top with fresh fruit.
Optionally, add a dollop of whipped cream for extra decadence.
Serve immediately and enjoy your cozy 'Pancakes in a Bowl'!
