Collect your ingredients: 1 cup flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 cup milk, 1 egg, and fresh fruit.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined and free of lumps.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until smooth. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients.
Gently stir the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Chop your choice of fresh fruit (like berries, bananas, or apples) and fold it gently into the pancake batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake, cooking until bubbles form on the surface.
Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown. Serve warm with syrup, extra fruit, or whipped cream for a delightful breakfast!
