Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup rose water
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp melted butter
Optional Ingredients
- Pink food coloring (optional)
- 1 tbsp dried rose petals
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- Fresh strawberries (optional, for serving)
- Whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined to ensure an even distribution of leavening agents and sweetness.
- 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, avoiding lumps.
- 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 that complements the floral theme of the pancakes.
- Heat Pan: Preheat a non-stick or greased pan over medium heat to ensure even cooking and prevent the pancakes from sticking to the surface.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour small amounts of batter onto the heated pan to form individual pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, indicating the first side is done, then carefully flip the pancakes and cook until the other side turns golden brown.
- Serve: Stack the cooked pancakes on a plate. Dust the top with powdered sugar and garnish with dried rose petals for an elegant and appealing presentation.
- Optional Serving Suggestions: Serve with fresh strawberries and whipped cream on the side for added flavor and a visually delightful experience.
Notes
- Use fresh rose water for the best and most authentic floral flavor.
- Adjust the amount of sugar if you prefer sweeter pancakes.
- Make sure the pan is properly heated before pouring the batter to achieve perfectly cooked pancakes.
- Pink food coloring is optional but adds a lovely visual element to the pancakes.
- For vegan variation, substitute egg with a flax egg and use plant-based milk and butter alternatives.
