Weekends are made for lazy mornings and delicious, indulgent breakfasts. And what better way to start your Sunday than with a batch of homemade pancakes? This small batch pancake recipe is perfect for creating a cozy and delicious Sunday brunch for you and your loved ones.
Small batch pancakes are a great option for those who don’t want to make a huge amount of batter, but still want to enjoy the fluffy goodness of freshly made pancakes. This recipe gives you just enough to feed a small group without having to deal with a surplus of leftovers.
To get started, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon sugar
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1 egg
– 2 tablespoons melted butter
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Butter or oil for cooking
To begin, start by preheating a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough pancakes.
Once the skillet or griddle is hot, lightly grease it with butter or oil. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet to form your pancakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. These small batch pancakes are perfect for a cozy Sunday brunch at home, and they can easily be customized to suit your taste preferences.
Not only are these pancakes delicious, but they also offer a sense of nostalgia and comfort that is perfect for a lazy weekend morning. So next Sunday, gather your loved ones and whip up a batch of small batch pancakes for a delightful and indulgent brunch. Enjoy!
