How to Make Cake Batter Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ¼ cups milk, 1 large egg, and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter.
  3. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. While pancakes cook, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
  8. Once cooked, stack pancakes on a plate and drizzle generously with the glaze.
  9. Sprinkle with colorful candy sprinkles (optional).
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
