Golden scrambled pancakes on a plate, a quick and easy breakfast.

Scrambled Pancakes


  • Author: Emily Cooks
  • Total Time: 12 minute

Description

A fun and easy twist on traditional pancakes, perfect for a quick and delicious breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free all-purpose blend)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter (or oil)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

1. Combine dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

2. Add wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).

3. Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Don’t overmix – a few lumps are okay.

4. Heat the skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You’ll know it’s ready when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly.

5. Cook the pancakes: Pour the batter onto the hot skillet, using about 1/4 cup of batter for each “pancake.” Let the pancakes cook for a minute or two, until bubbles start to form on the surface.

6. Scramble: Using a spatula, gently scramble the pancakes into smaller, bite-sized pieces. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes total.

7. Serve: Remove the Scrambled Pancakes from the skillet and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5 minutes after mixing. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning. See variations for sweet and savory options. Can substitute gluten-free flour and non-dairy milk.
