Ingredients

1.5 cups (180g) all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup (240ml) milk
0.5 cup (120ml) water
0.5 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp cooking oil (for batter) + more for frying

Instructions

Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, beat eggs, milk, water, and 1 tbsp oil.
Gradually add wet ingredients to dry, whisking until just combined. Do not overmix.
Heat a lightly oiled non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake; cook 2-3 minutes per side until golden.

Tips

Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking for a lighter texture.
Adjust liquid slightly if needed; batter should be thick enough to hold shape but pourable.
