Bite-Sized Fluffy Pancakes

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour: The base of our pancakes, providing structure.
• 2 tablespoons sugar: Just enough sweetness to tantalize your taste buds.
• 1 tablespoon baking powder: The secret to that sought-after fluffiness.
• A pinch of salt: To balance and enhance the flavors.
• 1 cup milk: Adds moisture and tenderness to the batter.
• 1 large egg: Binds the ingredients together and contributes to the richness.
• 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter: For a tender crumb and a hint of richness.
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract: A dash of vanilla to infuse the pancakes with warm, aromatic flavors.

Instructions:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly and mix it with the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
3. Create the Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Remember, a few lumps are okay; overmixing can lead to dense pancakes.
4. Preheat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You might want to brush it lightly with butter or oil to ensure the pancakes don’t stick.
5. Cook the Pancakes: For mini pancakes, use about 1 tablespoon of batter for each pancake. Pour it onto the hot skillet, and when you see bubbles forming on the surface, flip them carefully. Cook until both sides are golden brown.
6. Serve Warm: Stack your mini pancakes high and serve them warm. They’re delightful with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, or your favorite fruits on top.

These mini fluffy pancakes are not just a treat for the palate but also a feast for the eyes, making any meal feel a little more special.
