Super Easy Fluffy Pancakes

With a baby around, I find it troublesome to use my old pancake recipe which requires using whipped egg white. Most mornings, I feel too lazy for that much work in the kitchen! 

I promised myself that I will have to come up with another recipe that’s easy to put together, no whipping of egg whites yet I still can have my fluffy pancake stack! 😍
Super Easy Fluffy Pancakes! (feeds 2 pax or 1 pancake lover)

150g     Plain flour
    5g     Baking powder
  30g     Sugar
small pinch of salt

150g     Milk

    5g     Canola oil
    5g     Vanilla Extract
    1       Large Egg

1. Briefly whisk the plain flour, baking powder, sugar and salt together.

2. Whisk the milk, oil and egg till homogeneous.

3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient and stir till the batter just comes together. 

4. In a frying pan, over low heat, pour in batter to your desired size. Wait 1-2 mins till bubbles form and the bottom is no longer soggy before turning. Cook the other side for another 1-2 mins before removing.

5. Serve warm with your favourite toppings! Maple syrup, honey, chocolate spread, bacon!!!, fresh fruits and the list goes on!

Thoughts: Look at the pancake puffing up! This is really super easy, just stir the wet ingredients into the dry till just combined and that's it! There are no tricks or skills to these fluffy pancakes. Perhaps the only thing to look out for is to wait for the pancakes to puff up and the bubbles to stablised before flipping.

I set out to make these as basic pancakes, barely sweet with a subtle touch of vanilla, so they will go well with anything! You can increase the amount of sugar or add maple syrup and they will be good to eat on their own! Or replace the oil with half a tablespoon of melted butter if you don't mind the extra step, that will be real tasty too!

Feel free to go creative with this basic pancake recipe! Top with your favourite fruits, ice cream and syrup! Or add some delicious mix-in right into the batter! Did I hear chocolate chips?! Share with us your yummy creations on facebook or tag @whattobaketoday on instagram

  1. Hi i tried double of all the ingredients for 4 pax. Mine didn't puff up and it turned out hard & thick. Where could I have possibly gone wrong?

  2. Hi there! I would say the trickiest part to getting this right is knowing when to stop mixing the batter and not touching or flipping the pancake when cooking.

    If u overmix the batter, it will lose the bubbles and turn out hard. Likewise if u flip or squish the pancakes before the structure stabilises, it will become hard too.

    Perhaps u would like to make a small testing batch till u get the hang of it. Let me know how it goes! 😊
