Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (divided)
  • 1 teaspoon bourbon extract (or 1 tablespoon bourbon)
  • 1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke

Instructions

  1. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup, bourbon extract, and liquid smoke.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix. A few lumps are fine.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles appear on the surface.
  7. Serve immediately, topped with the remaining 2 tablespoons of maple syrup.

Notes

  • For extra smoky flavor, you can add a tiny pinch of smoked paprika to the dry ingredients.
  • Make sure your baking powder is fresh for the fluffiest results.
  • Use real maple syrup for the best taste.
