Step-by-Step Instructions for Christmas Pancakes
  1. In a large mixing bowl, sift together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 2 tablespoons of sugar.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat 1 large egg until fluffy, then mix in 1 cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients, gently stirring just until combined. Fold in 1/4 cup of festive Christmas sprinkles.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 3 minutes, adding a layer of butter or non-stick cooking spray.
  5. Using a ladle, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface. Cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping carefully and cooking for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Stack your Christmas Pancakes on a beautiful plate. Top with whipped cream, a drizzle of maple syrup, and extra Christmas sprinkles.
