Welcome back to the Simple Recipe Box podcast, where each week, we dive into the joy of home cooking. I'm your host, Ben Harper, and today, we're talking about a breakfast game-changer for all you solo diners out there—the Perfect Single Serving Pancake. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a curious novice, this episode is your quick guide to solo breakfast bliss. Let's start with the basics. You'll need just a few simple ingredients that are probably already in your pantry. Grab one large egg, two tablespoons of all-purpose flour, one tablespoon of granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. That's it! These ingredients will create a fluffy, golden-brown pancake that's just for you—no leftovers, no waste. Now, onto the equipment. You don’t need anything fancy here; just a mixing bowl, a whisk, and a non-stick skillet. This setup ensures that your cooking experience will be smooth and enjoyable. Here’s the step-by-step guide to making your perfect pancake. First, preheat your skillet over medium heat. While it's heating, whisk together the egg, flour, sugar, and a pinch of salt in your bowl until smooth. This mixture is the base of your pancake. Then, pour the batter into the skillet, forming a circle about 4 inches in diameter. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to dry and bubbles form on the surface. Flip it over and cook for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are nicely golden brown. But what if you want to switch things up a bit? This recipe is incredibly versatile. For a vegan option, substitute the egg with a flax or chia seed egg. And if you're avoiding gluten, simply use a gluten-free flour blend instead of all-purpose flour. Dairy-free? No problem—replace regular milk with almond or coconut milk. The beauty of this recipe is its adaptability to fit your dietary needs. Once your pancake is ready, the fun part begins—topping it! Go classic with a pat of butter and some maple syrup, or get creative with fresh berries, chopped nuts, or a dollop of whipped cream. Pair it with your favorite morning beverage, and you've got a complete, satisfying breakfast. If you end up making more than one and have leftovers, storing them is a breeze. Just place your pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days or in the freezer for up to three months. They reheat wonderfully in a skillet or microwave. And there you have it, folks—your quick guide to creating a delicious, single-serving pancake. It's easy, it's quick, and it's tailored just for you. Give it a try and transform your mornings with a warm, inviting breakfast that's just the right size.
