Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- as needed for greasing Non-stick cooking spray or additional butter
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
Once the skillet is hot, scoop 1/4 cup of batter and pour it onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter if needed.
Cook until small bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 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. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
