Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using) to the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined, making sure there are no lumps.
- Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds, or until the pancake has risen and cooked through. Check after 1 minute to ensure it’s done, as microwave wattages can vary.
- Let it cool for a minute before serving. Top with syrup, fruit, whipped cream, or your favorite toppings!
Notes
- Use a microwave-safe mug or bowl that’s large enough to allow the pancake to rise without overflowing.
- Microwave ovens vary in power, so check the pancake after 1 minute to avoid overcooking.
- For fluffier pancakes, avoid overmixing the batter.
- Customize by adding chocolate chips, fruit, or peanut butter before microwaving.
