Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 3.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoons white sugar
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture.
Gently stir the ingredients with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Let the batter sit for a few minutes to allow the baking powder to activate.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake and the edges are dry, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream.
