Here’s a classic recipe for delicious pancakes:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 3/4 cups milk
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. Create a well in the centre of the dry ingredients.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract (if using).
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Be careful not to over mix, as this can make the pancakes tough. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
5. Heat a lightly greased griddle or pan over medium heat.
6. Pour or scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
7. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges begin to dry.
8. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
9. Serve immediately with your favourite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Tips:

• For extra fluffy pancakes, separate the eggs and beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Then, gently fold the egg whites into the batter just before cooking.
• If the batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon or two of milk until it reaches a pourable consistency.
• You can also add other ingredients to your pancake batter, such as chocolate chips, blueberries, or chopped nuts.
