In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or butter.
Once the pan is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet, leaving enough space between pancakes to allow for spreading.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Use a spatula to flip them over carefully.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the second side, or until the pancakes are golden brown and fully cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover them with a clean towel or keep them warm in a low-temperature oven while cooking the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dollop of butter. Enjoy!
