Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2
In a separate small bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract if using. Mix well.

Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread slightly to form a circle.

Serve hot with your favorite toppings such as butter, syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
