Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 for greasing the pan Non-stick cooking spray or additional butter

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In another bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together using a spatula or whisk until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy but with no large streaks of flour. Avoid overmixing to ensure fluffy pancakes.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop batter onto the hot skillet or griddle to form pancakes. Leave enough space between each pancake for spreading.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while you repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy!
