Copycat McDonalds Pancake Recipe
Pancakes are the best breakfast for a lazy Sunday morning. Add the iconic pat of butter and drizzle of maple syrup and you have an easy breakfast that feeds the entire family in less than an hour!
Equipment
- 2 mixing bowls one small, one large
- 1 Whisk
- 1 set of measuring cups and spoons
- 1 Spatula
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 2 cups skim milk or other milk of choice (i.e. 2%, plant-based)
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat Griddle
- Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter, avocado oil, or non-stick cooking spray. I like to use a combination of a bit of butter and avocado oil.
Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and kosher salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients
- In another mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vegetable oil.
Mix the Batter
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Take care to not overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps in the batter.
Cook the Pancakes
- Pour 1/4 - ⅓ cup of the batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle (I used a ¼ cup measuring cup). Cook until bubbles form on the surface, this only takes 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the other side until the pancakes are golden brown.
Serve
- Serve these pancakes with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, whipped cream, Maple Peanut Butter Sauce, sliced apples, fresh berries, or nuts. Enjoy!
