Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 as needed Cooking spray or additional butter
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. It's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread slightly if needed to form a circle.
Cook the pancakes until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the second side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
