Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Ripe pears, peeled and diced
- 1 as needed Butter or oil (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should still have a few lumps.
Gently fold in the diced pears to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Leave some space between the pancakes to allow for spreading.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown.
Remove the cooked pancakes and keep them warm while you repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the pear pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, or an extra sprinkle of diced pears.
