When ready to make pancakes, make the batter: In a medium bowl, lightly beat egg, then whisk in milk and melted butter. Sprinkle the 1 cup of pancake mix over the top and slowly whisk together until just blended. (It’s OK if there are lumps; do not overmix.) Let the batter rest at room temperature for 10 minutes, which will help the flour hydrate and the batter thicken.

While the batter is resting, heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low. When the batter is ready, grease the skillet, making sure the entire surface is lightly coated. Working in batches, add ¼-cup scoops of batter to the skillet, spreading the batter slightly if necessary. Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface of the pancake and the underside is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the second side is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes more.

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet in between each batch. Serve pancakes immediately.

Tips for the Perfect Pancakes
- Don't Overmix: When combining your pancake mix with wet ingredients, stir just until combined. Lumps are perfectly fine and contribute to a light, airy texture.
- Hot Griddle is Key: Ensure your griddle or pan is preheated to medium heat. A few drops of water should sizzle and evaporate immediately. Use a little melted butter or vegetable oil for cooking.
- Customize Your Stack: Elevate your pancakes with fun additions! Think fresh blueberries, chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of cinnamon mixed directly into the wet batter. For serving, a generous drizzle of warm blueberry syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of whipped cream turns breakfast into a special treat.
This vegetarian-friendly recipe is designed for ease and flavor, ensuring consistently delightful pancakes that will become a cherished part of your weekend (or weekday!) mornings. With minimal prep time and cook time, you'll be enjoying a delicious breakfast in just 10 minutes from start to finish.
