Simple pancakes

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the pan

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. It's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or butter.

Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the hot griddle or skillet for each pancake.

Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is golden brown.

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more cooking spray or butter as needed.

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Enjoy your delicious homemade pancakes, perfect for a satisfying breakfast or brunch!
