# Everything You’ll Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 -
1 cup all-purpose flour
02 -
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 -
1 tablespoon baking powder
04 -
½ teaspoon salt
→ Wet Ingredients
05 -
1 cup whole milk
06 -
1 large egg
07 -
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Topping
09 -
⅓ cup cinnamon sugar
# Steps to Cook:
01 -
Whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl until evenly mixed.
02 -
In a separate bowl, beat whole milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and uniform.
03 -
Pour wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined, leaving the batter slightly lumpy for fluffiness.
04 -
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
05 -
Pour approximately ¼ cup batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook for 2-3 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
06 -
Immediately coat both sides of each cooked pancake with cinnamon sugar to replicate traditional churro flavor.
07 -
Repeat with remaining batter and serve pancakes warm, optionally with extra cinnamon sugar or syrup.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Avoid overmixing the batter to maintain optimal fluffiness.
02 -
Adjust cinnamon sugar quantity to taste.
03 -
Enhance flavor with whipped cream or chocolate sauce if desired.
