In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Preheat a camping griddle or skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or cooking oil.
Using a ladle or measuring scoop, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes carefully using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or chocolate chips.
