Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 2 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue whisking until a smooth and slightly thin batter forms.
Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes while you preheat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat.
Lightly grease the skillet with butter or oil. Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and immediately tilt and rotate the skillet to spread the batter evenly into a thin, round shape.
Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the edges look set and the bottom is lightly golden brown. Carefully flip the pancake with a spatula and cook the other side for another 30-60 seconds.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, syrup, whipped cream, or savory fillings.
