Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 3 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Whole milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0 as needed Cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. A few lumps are okay—do not overmix, as this can make the pancakes dense.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter into a circle, if necessary.

Step 6

Cook the pancake until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
