Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 0 Cooking spray or butter (for greasing the skillet)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In another bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently whisk until combined. The batter may be slightly lumpy, which is fine—do not overmix.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 5

Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of the scoop or a spoon to gently spread the batter into a circle if needed.

Step 6

Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown on both sides.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
