Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  2. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat together the milk, large egg, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract to create a smooth mixture.
  3. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Then fold in the rainbow sprinkles evenly throughout the batter.
  4. Preheat griddle or pan: Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Prepare pancake mold: Place a heart-shaped pancake mold onto the griddle to hold the batter shape while cooking.
  6. Pour batter and cook first side: Pour the batter into the heart mold, filling it about halfway. Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface and edges look set, which usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Flip and cook second side: Carefully remove the mold, then flip the pancake using a spatula and cook the other side until golden brown, approximately 1-2 minutes more.
  8. Repeat and serve: Continue the process with the remaining batter. Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of syrup or whipped cream for added sweetness.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
  • If you don’t have a heart-shaped mold, use any pancake mold or cook freeform for round pancakes.
  • Use gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version.
  • For extra richness, substitute some milk with buttermilk.
  • Serve immediately for best texture or keep warm in a low oven.
