Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1.75 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 1.25 cups Milk
  • 1 large Egg
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually pour in the wet ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.

Step 4

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

Step 5

Using a ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Leave space between each pancake to allow for spreading.

Step 6

Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.

Step 7

Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm under a clean kitchen towel or in a low oven while cooking the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve warm with butter, syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite topping.
