Old-Fashioned Pancake Batter

Makes about 4 cups

© by No Revisions

Pancake batter starts with flour (generally all-purpose), a leavener, sugar/sweetener, salt, milk, butter and egg. Once you have the ratios down you can substitute different milks, sweeteners and flours.

Ingredients

  • All-Purpose Flour 1 1⁄2 cups
  • Baking Powder 2 tsp
  • Granulated Sugar 2 Tbs
  • Salt ¼ tsp, or more to taste
  • Milk 1 1⁄4 to 1 1⁄2 cups
  • Eggs 2
  • Vanilla Extract ¼ tsp, optional
  • Unsalted Butter 3 Tbs, melted, plus extra for cooking pancakes

Mix It

  1. Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, and vanilla together. Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the melted butter. The mixture can be used in recipes and will hold in the refrigerator for 2 days.
