Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour Consider whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
  • 1 cup Milk Almond milk works beautifully for a dairy-free choice.
  • 4 large Eggs Using room temperature eggs yields the best texture.
  • 2 tablespoons Sugar Feel free to reduce it for a less sweet treat.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract Almond extract makes a lovely substitute.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon Butter Coconut oil serves as a great dairy-free alternative.
Optional Toppings
  • 1 cup Fresh berries Bring a burst of flavor and freshness.
  • 1/2 cup Maple syrup For that classic sweet pancake experience.
  • 1 cup Powdered sugar A simple dusting adds elegance and sweetness.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and place a muffin tin inside to heat up for 10-15 minutes.
  2. In a blender, combine the flour, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Blend until smooth, about 30-45 seconds.
  3. Remove the hot muffin tin from the oven and add ½ tablespoon of butter into each cup, allowing it to melt.
  4. Pour the batter into each muffin cup, filling about ¾ full, and the batter should sizzle upon contact.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until pancakes puff up and turn golden brown.
  6. Let cool a minute, then serve warm with your choice of toppings.
