Ingredients

• 1 cup Masa Harina (corn flour)
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1.25 cups Whole milk
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or butter (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the masa harina, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk the dry ingredients together until evenly blended.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Ensure the butter is slightly cooled to avoid cooking the eggs.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a whisk or spatula until the batter is just combined and no large lumps remain. The consistency should be slightly thicker than traditional pancake batter.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or butter.

Step 5

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon or ladle to spread the batter slightly if needed.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set. Flip gently with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet if necessary between batches.

Step 8

Serve warm with your choice of toppings: they pair beautifully with savory options like avocado, sour cream, and salsa, or sweet toppings like honey, maple syrup, and fresh berries.
