👶 Kid-Friendly🌶️ mild Spice

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp matcha green tea powder
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Cooking spray or additional butter for frying

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and matcha powder until well-combined.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

  4. 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.

  5. 5

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  7. 7

    Remove from the skillet, and keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.

  8. 8

    Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream if desired.
