Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional toppings: syrup, berries, or chocolate chips

Instructions

Prep the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the pancake batter.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Prepare the Air Fryer Basket: Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
Cook the Pancake Bites: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop small amounts of batter into the air fryer basket, leaving space between each one. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
