Fluffy Pancakes From Scratch II

This is version 2 of my super fluffy pancake recipe! Everyone loved the first one, so I revisited this recipe and made it even better. They're incredibly light, fluffy, and easy to make! No complicated steps or ingredients. Just a straightforward recipe that is super delicious!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 ¼ cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup cooking oil (any oil will work, like vegetable, canola, or olive oil. You can also use butter, but make sure it's melted)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and baking powder together.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, oil (or butter), vanilla, and salt.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk gently until JUST combined. The batter should be very lumpy.
  • Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. Scoop in ¼ cup of batter per pancake and cook for 2 minutes until bubbles form and the edges dry out. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.
  • Serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, and strawberry sauce (see notes on how to make)!

Notes

Strawberry sauce: I love serving these pancakes with homemade strawberry sauce. In a small saucepan, combine ½ pound of frozen strawberries, 2 tablespoons of water, and ½ cup of sugar. Simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes.
