- Easy
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/4 cups whole milk
- 1 egg
- 3 tbsp butter; melted
Ingredients
-
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder. Keep the mixture aside.
-
Step 2
In the bowl/tumbler, in which you melted the butter, crack in an egg and add the milk. Stir to blend the wet mixture.
-
Step 3
Create a well in the centre of the flour mixture. Pour the butter and milk mixture into the well. Use a wire whisk to stir everything together until just combined. It will be slightly thick and lumpy but should be well incorporated.
-
Step 4
Allow the batter to rest while heating a lightly oiled skillet or griddle to medium-high heat.
-
Step 5
Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.

Step 6
Cook each side for 3-6 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Voila, the perfect Sunday breakfast is ready!
