Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Chocolate chips (for the ghost eyes)
Instructions
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to ensure even distribution.
- Combine the Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until fully combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Preheat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. To test if it’s ready, sprinkle a few drops of water on the pan. If they dance and evaporate, it’s time to cook.
- Pour the Batter: Pour the pancake batter onto the skillet in ghost shapes. Leave enough space between each pancake to allow for spreading.
- Add the Chocolate Chips: Quickly place chocolate chips to form the eyes on each ghost pancake before the batter sets.
- Cook Until Bubbly: Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the pancakes and cook until they are golden brown on the other side, about another 2 to 3 minutes.
- Serve Warm: Serve your boo-tiful ghost-shaped pancakes warm, with syrup or any toppings of your choice.
Notes
Don’t overmix the batter, and make sure to store any leftovers properly.
