- Mixing the Batter
In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center and add the milk, egg, and melted butter. Using a whisk, mix just until the ingredients are combined. It is normal for small lumps to remain in the batter; this ensures that the pancakes turn out softer. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
- The Bubble Technique
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan. When small holes (bubbles) begin to form on the surface and the edges turn matte (approximately 2 minutes), carefully flip it with a spatula. Cook the other side for another minute until it turns golden brown.
- Stacking and Topping
Stack the cooked pancakes to form a tower. Place a small piece of cold butter on top and pour plenty of maple syrup over it. Garnish with fresh fruit (blueberries or strawberries) and serve.

The pancake is an icon of American breakfast culture and represents the modern incarnation of a “pan-cake” tradition with roots stretching back to ancient Greece. An indispensable staple of weekend family breakfasts, this treat becomes truly iconic particularly when served with maple syrup and a pat of butter. The secret to a good pancake lies in not overmixing the batter; this allows the trapped air bubbles to rise during cooking, creating a light and fluffy texture.
