Classic Pancakes

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

2. 2

   In another bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk and melted butter.

3. 3

   Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

4. 4

   Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.

5. 5

   Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

6. 6

   Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1-2 minutes more.

7. 7

   Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
