Ingredients
  

  • 1 ⅓ cups (175 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 egg, room temp
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup whole milk, room temp
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp salted butter, melted and slightly cooled

Note: Gram measurements do not adjust automatically with the serving multiplier.

Method
 

BATTER
  1. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl. Set aside.
  2. Beat egg and vanilla in a separate small bowl. Set aside. Mix milk and lemon juice together. Whisk milk mixture and egg mixture into a medium bowl. Melt butter in microwave and let cool slightly. Then, whisk vigorously into the milk/egg mixture until the liquid is a bit frothy.
  3. Pour liquids into dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do NOT overmix. Batter will be lumpy. Let sit for 10-15 minutes. (Do not continue to stir – we want the bubbly texture.)
  4. Heat a griddle or frying pan which has been greased with a little butter to a medium heat setting. Pour a small amount of batter (about 1/4 cup) onto pan. When bubbles appear on surface and begin to break, turn over and cook the other side.
STORAGE
  1. Store cooked pancakes in a Ziploc bag or airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. You may also freeze them for up to 3 months. They can be reheated in the toaster oven or microwave directly from frozen.

Notes

I always weigh my flour in this recipe to achieve the perfect balance between dry and liquid ingredients. If using measuring cups, you may need to add a little more flour or milk to reach that perfect consistency or vice versa.
