Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk, rose water, egg, and melted butter. Mix all ingredients together until the batter is smooth and uniform in consistency.
- Color the Batter (Optional): If desired, add a drop of pink food coloring to the batter and stir gently to achieve a soft pastel hue.
