Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• Additional butter for cooking

How to Make Fluffy Pancakes with Creamy Sauce

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.
5. Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a warm plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
7. While the pancakes are cooking, prepare the creamy sauce by whisking together the sweetened condensed milk and heavy cream in a small bowl until smooth.
8. Serve the pancakes stacked high, drizzled generously with the creamy sauce.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your baking powder is fresh for maximum fluffiness.
• Don’t overmix the batter; it should be slightly lumpy for the best texture.
• Keep pancakes warm in a low oven while you cook the remaining batter.
• Adjust the thickness of the creamy sauce by adding more or less heavy cream to suit your taste.

Easy Variations

• Add chocolate chips or blueberries to the pancake batter before cooking for extra flavor.
• Substitute the sweetened condensed milk with maple syrup or honey for a different sweetness profile.
• Top with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or nuts for added texture and flavor.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy bacon or sausage for a savory contrast
• Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side
• Yogurt for a creamy, tangy complement
• Coffee or a mimosa to enhance your brunch experience
