๐ Ingredients (Simple & Pantry-Friendly!)
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (or sub ½ cup whole wheat for nutty flavor)
2 tbsp sugar (for that golden crisp)
1 tbsp baking powder (key to fluffiness!)
½ tsp salt (balances sweetness)
1 ¼ cups milk (whole milk = richer taste)
1 large egg (room temp = better rise)
3 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional but heavenly)
๐ Pro Tip: Swap milk for buttermilk for extra-tender pancakes!
