Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2. In another bowl, combine milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix gently. Do not overmix.
4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grease lightly.
5. Scoop small portions of batter onto the skillet using a spoon or scoop.
6. Cook for 2 minutes or until bubbles appear and edges set.
7. Flip gently and cook the other side for 1–2 more minutes.
8. Serve warm with syrup, fruit, or dipping sauces.
Notes
Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes to ensure maximum fluffiness.
Use a non-stick skillet for even browning and easy flipping.
These poppers freeze well—just toast to reheat straight from frozen.
