Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 1 Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Non-stick cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Using a ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Leave enough space between them for easy flipping.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm by placing them on a plate covered with a clean kitchen towel.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy!
