Directions

  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. Non-Stick Pan: Use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease with butter or cooking spray for easy flipping.

Suggested Variations
