Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 2 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for serving
  • Vegetable oil, for the griddle
  • Pure maple syrup, warmed, for serving

Directions

Place a heat-proof platter into a warm oven (at 200 degrees).

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add in the egg, milk, and 2 tablespoons of the butter. Whisk from the center, slowly incorporating the flour. Rest the batter for 10 minutes.

Heat a large well-seasoned cast-iron skillet or favorite griddle over medium-high heat. Swirl the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet (or use oil to coat the griddle) and immediately pour in 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. When bubbles rise to the surface, flip the pancakes, slightly reduce the heat, and cook until the bottoms are golden and the centers are cooked, about 1 minute. (Rarely does the first pancake work because it takes a bit of time to get in the groove with the heat, fat, and batter.)

As the pancakes come out of the skillet, place them on the warm platter in the oven until ready to serve. Serve a stack of 3 pancakes, topped with more butter and the maple syrup.

                Great, quick recipe which results in delicious, fluffy pancakes. I did substitute buttermilk for regular milk. I keep buttermilk in powder form in my refrigerator for easy use.

                Tasty, but tough if overmixed.

                I love this Pancake recipe. My son loves loves loves pancakes for breakfast every morning and this recipe freezes well. We always make a double batch and freeze and even when reheated they are still very moist and delicious. We also like the taste of cinnamon in the batter.

                Amazing>>>>>.This is really the best pancake recipe I have ever tried .... It is sooo fluffy and at the same time well cooked from inside 
                Also it is mixed in one pot and u dont need to separate eggs so it is rapid 
                but if u ,as me, like them sweet  add 2 or 3 tbs of sugar

                These pancakes take longer than thinner pancakes on the skillet- but it was worth the wait! I served with warm honey.

                This will be my new go to pancake recipe for everyday pancakes.  Sure buttermilk would be good but I don't keep it in the house.  We loved these pancakes and they are just great for a regular saturday morning or breakfast for dinner on a weeknight.  Nothing fancy just good.  That's what I love about Lucinda!

                Great recipe!  I loved it and will use it from now on instead of buying the pancake mix.  I will add half a teaspoon of  salt next time, though, as I thought it had a bit too much of a salty taste.  Still, this recipe is better than any pre-made pancake mix.
