Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.75 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups milk
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 as needed vegetable oil or cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a whisk or spatula until the batter is smooth and free of large lumps. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil or cooking spray.
Step 5
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Space them apart to prevent them from spreading into each other.
Step 6
Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Carefully flip each pancake with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while repeating with the remaining batter.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or butter.
