Best Fluffy Pancakes
These ultra‑fluffy pancakes come together in minutes with a simple mix of flour, leavening, milk, melted butter, vanilla, and an egg. The thick, creamy batter cooks into golden, tender pancakes that rise beautifully and stay soft inside, perfect for serving warm with maple syrup, honey, or fresh fruit.

Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose or plain flour
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 3/4 cup milk
- 4 tbsp butter, melted (or substitute with olive oil)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large-sized bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the milk, slightly cooled melted butter, vanilla and egg.
- Use a wire whisk to whisk the wet ingredients together first before slowly folding them into the dry ingredients. Mix together until smooth (there may be a couple of lumps but that's okay).The batter will be thick and creamy in consistency. If you find the batter too thick (doesn't pour off the ladle or out of the measuring cup smoothly) fold a couple tablespoons of extra milk into the batter at a time until reaching desired consistency.
- Set the batter aside and allow to rest while heating up your pan or griddle.
- Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over low-medium heat and wipe over with a little butter or olive oil to lightly grease pan. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the pan and spread out gently into a round shape with the back of your ladle or measuring cup.
- When the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip with a spatula and cook until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve with honey, pure maple syrup or fruit.
