Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 200 ml (3/4 cup) milk
- Pinch of salt
- 200 g (1 2/3 cups) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- Whisk the egg with the sugar, milk, and salt.
- Add the flour and baking powder in batches, stirring until smooth.
- Stir in the oil.
- Cook in a dry nonstick skillet over medium heat, 2-3 minutes per side, until fluffy and golden.
Tips
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes — it gives the baking powder a head start for extra fluff.
- Cook on a dry nonstick skillet; the pancakes release easily once golden underneath.
- Keep finished pancakes warm in a low oven while you cook the rest; find more breakfast basics in the recipe resources at the USDA.
