Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.75 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; the batter should be slightly lumpy. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in tough pancakes.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or a small amount of oil.
Step 5
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the griddle to form pancakes. Leave enough space between each pancake for spreading.
Step 6
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Step 7
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed between batches.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
