Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup milk Can substitute with almond or soy milk.
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar Used to sour the milk.
Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Can be substituted with whole wheat flour.
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar Adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Leavening agent.
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda Leavening agent.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the milk and vinegar. Let it sit for a few minutes to sour.
  2. In another bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda together until well combined.
  3. Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Make sure not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Cooking
  1. Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  2. Pour the batter onto the skillet, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake.
  3. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
Serving
  1. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.

Notes

For fluffier pancakes, let the batter rest for about 5-10 minutes before cooking. Consider adding chocolate chips, nuts, or bananas for extra flavor.
