Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 as needed cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well 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 gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter if needed.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
