Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1.25 cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries (coarsely chopped)
• 1 as needed vegetable oil or butter (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined – the batter should be slightly lumpy. Do not overmix.

Step 4

Fold in the chopped cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil or butter.

Step 6

Scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet, spacing them apart to allow for spreading.

Step 7

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve the cranberry pancakes warm, topped with your favorite pancake syrup, butter, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
