Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Butter or oil (for greasing pan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.
Once the pan is hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Space them apart to prevent them from spreading into each other.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancake with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
