Ingredients

  • cup flour all-purpose
  • tablespoons sugar 
  • teaspoons double-acting baking powder 
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt 
  • large eggs lightly beaten
  • cup milk 
  • tablespoons butter unsalted cooled melted for griddle

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • paper towels
  • oven
  • whisk
  • pastry bag

Directions

  1. Preheat griddle to 375 degrees, or heat griddle pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl.
  3. Add egg, milk, and 2 tablespoons melted butter; whisk to combine. Batter should have small to medium lumps.
  4. Preheat oven to 175 degrees. Test griddle by sprinkling with a few drops of water. If water bounces and spatters, it is hot enough. With paper towel, brush 1/2 teaspoon butter onto griddle. Wipe off excess.
  5. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch plain round tip with batter; twist end of bag, and secure with rubber band. Working in batches, pipe heart shapes, drawing V of batter in center of hearts to fill, on heated griddle. When pancakes have bubbles on top and are slightly dry around the edges, about 2 minutes, flip over. Cook until golden on the bottom, about 1 minute.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter, using 1/2 teaspoon butter on griddle for each batch, keeping finished pancakes on a heat-proof plate in the oven until ready to serve.
