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

To make pancakes: For every 1 cup of pancake mix, whisk together 3/4 cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter or oil in a separate bowl.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter and serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
