Ingredients
Scale:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 ¼ cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
Maple syrup
Optional: Chopped nuts, fresh berries
Instructions
Prepare the Dry Mix: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon until thoroughly combined. This will ensure even distribution of ingredients for a consistent batter.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until well blended.
Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Preheat and Cook: Heat a skillet over medium heat and coat with a light layer of butter or oil. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over pancakes before serving.
Serve Warm: Stack pancakes on a plate, drizzle with glaze, and add optional toppings like maple syrup, nuts, or berries for a delightful experience.
