Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 cup milk
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
Instructions
- Prepare wet ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg, canola oil, and milk until well combined and smooth.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder, stirring to evenly distribute all the dry components.
- Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredient mixture, and gently stir until the batter is just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
- Preheat skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Cook pancakes: Drop approximately 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set, then carefully flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm: Remove pancakes from the skillet and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to ensure fluffy pancakes.
- Use a non-stick skillet or griddle for best results.
- Adjust heat as necessary to avoid burning the pancakes.
- Batter can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- Try substituting milk with a dairy-free alternative to make it lactose free.
