Instructions:
-
🍚 Sift & Mix: Begin by sifting the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt) twice into a generously sized bowl, creating the foundation for the perfect pancake texture.
-
🥚 Egg Elegance: In a separate bowl, beat the egg and combine it with the milk. Add the heavenly melted butter to this mixture, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors.
-
🥢 Gentle Fusion: Using the warmth of a wooden spoon, delicately fold the egg-milk-butter amalgamation into the dry ingredients. The goal is a smooth batter without overmixing, a testament to the finesse of pancake artistry.
-
🔥 Griddle Glory: Heat a robust griddle or frypan, generously greased with a touch of butter on a paper towel. The pan is ready for pancake magic when a drop of water sizzles and dances around, setting the stage for culinary excellence.
-
🍳 Pour & Spread: Pour a modest quarter-cup of batter onto the heated surface, allowing it to gracefully spread or assist with a gentle spoon swirl. Watch the pancake canvas come to life.
-
⏰ Bubbles & Flip: Keep a keen eye as bubbles gracefully surface and gently burst. It’s the signal to flip your pancake, allowing the other side to achieve the golden perfection.
-
🌈 Serve with Style: The masterpiece is ready! Serve these pancakes with a touch of tradition – lemon juice and a sugar sprinkle, or explore new horizons with golden syrup or maple syrup.
