Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Prepare your Blackstone griddle by preheating it to medium heat (around 375°F), ensuring the surface is clean and lightly greased with butter or cooking oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until thoroughly mixed and no lumps remain.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined and smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a whisk or spatula. Stir until just combined - some small lumps are okay. Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes tender.
- Let the batter rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid and the baking powder to activate.
- Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop batter onto the preheated griddle, leaving enough space between each pancake for easy flipping.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look dry.
- Carefully flip each pancake using a wide spatula and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm while cooking the remaining batter.
- Serve hot with butter, maple syrup, fresh berries, or your favorite pancake toppings.
Tips
- Temperature is Key: Maintain a consistent medium heat (around 375°F) for even cooking and beautiful golden-brown pancakes.
- Don't Overmix: Gently combine wet and dry ingredients, leaving a few small lumps. Overmixing can lead to tough, dense pancakes.
- Let the Batter Rest: Allow the batter to sit for 2-3 minutes before cooking. This helps the flour absorb liquid and activates the baking powder for fluffier results.
- Use the Right Tools: A wide, flat spatula makes flipping pancakes much easier and prevents tearing.
- Watch for Bubbles: When small bubbles form on the surface and edges look dry, it's time to flip your pancake.
- Keep Pancakes Warm: Cover cooked pancakes with a clean kitchen towel to maintain their temperature and softness while cooking the remaining batch.
- Experiment with Toppings: Try fresh berries, whipped cream, chocolate chips, or classic maple syrup to personalize your pancakes.
