Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup (125 grams) all purpose plain flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated white sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup (160 mls) whole milk
  • 1 large egg (at room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 grams) melted unsalted butter
  • Extra butter for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare dry ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until evenly combined.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl or jug, whisk together the whole milk, large egg, and melted unsalted butter thoroughly.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Gradually whisk the milk and egg mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix. If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk for the right consistency.
  4. Heat the pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle pan over medium-low heat and grease lightly with butter, using only a small amount to prevent burning.
  5. Cook mini pancakes: Drop small spoonfuls of batter (approximately 2-3 teaspoons) onto the heated pan, keeping each mini pancake no larger than 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter.
  6. Flip and cook until golden: Cook each mini pancake for about 45 seconds, or until bubbles form and pop on the surface. Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while cooking the remaining batter.

Notes

  • Use room temperature egg for better batter consistency.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes light and fluffy.
  • If the batter is too thick, add additional milk 1 tablespoon at a time until desired texture.
  • Cook on medium-low heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
  • Serve warm with syrup, honey, fresh fruit, or your choice of toppings.
  • Mini pancakes are perfect for bite-sized servings and quick cooking.
