Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 3.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoons white sugar
• 1.25 cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 cups maple syrup

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Make a well in the center.

Step 2

In another bowl or large measuring jug, whisk together the milk and egg until well combined.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the milk and egg mixture.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients. Use a whisk to stir the ingredients until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy, but without any large flour pockets.

Step 5

Preheat a griddle or a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with vegetable oil.

Step 6

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Use the back of the measuring cup to spread the batter into a circle if needed.

Step 7

Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip and continue cooking until the pancakes are golden brown on the other side, another 2 minutes.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the griddle as necessary.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes hot with maple syrup drizzled on top for a classic touch.
