Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 4 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup milk, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Additional:

  • Butter for cooking

Instructions

  1. Dry Ingredients: Sift flour and mix with sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. This will ensure even distribution and aeration of dry ingredients.

  3. Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter, milk, and vanilla.
  4. Combining wet ingredients separately helps in even mixing and flavor distribution.

  5. Combine Batter: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk gently until just mixed. Do not overmix.
  6. Overmixing can result in dense hotcakes.

  7. Cooking: Heat a griddle with butter and pour 1/4 cup portions of batter. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook the other side until browned.
  8. Adjust heat as needed to ensure even cooking.

  9. Serve: Serve hotcakes immediately or keep them warm in the oven until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for better incorporation.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter to maintain a fluffy texture.
  • Small lumps in the batter are acceptable and will not affect the final outcome significantly.
