How to Make Filipino Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the gluten to relax, then give it a gentle stir.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake, creating 6-inch pancakes.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges look set.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic Filipino pancakes! Top with your favorite fruits, syrup, or butter.
