Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon extra butter (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix it with milk. Melt the butter and allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the milk-egg mixture. Stir until combined.

Step 3

Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing with a whisk or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are okay.

Step 4

Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. Spread gently if needed.

Step 6

Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Flip the pancake and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes more, or until golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan if necessary.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite toppings like honey, syrup, jam, or just a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
