Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 1 Large egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Non-stick cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Using a ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Leave enough space between them for easy flipping.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm by placing them on a plate covered with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

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