Recipe for Fluffy American Pancakes

These American pancakes use a thick batter cooked until golden and served with syrup.

Ingredients

• 250 grams flour
• 300 milliliters milk
• 1 egg
• 50 grams melted butter
• 15 grams baking powder
• 30 grams sugar
• 2 grams salt

Preparation

1. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl
2. Add the milk, egg, and melted butter then stir until the batter is combined
3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and grease it with a little butter
4. Pour batter into the pan and cook until bubbles appear on the top
5. Flip the pancakes and cook for one minute until the other side is golden
6. Serve hot with a stack of maple syrup and a knob of butter

Tips

• Do not overmix the batter as a few small lumps help keep pancakes fluffy
• Wait for bubbles to pop on the surface before flipping to ensure even cooking
• Keep the finished pancakes in a warm oven while you finish the entire batch
