Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1.25 cups whole milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Step 2: Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Step 3: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a rubber spatula. Do not overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine and help keep the pancakes fluffy.
  4. Step 4: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately one-quarter cup for each pancake.
  5. Step 5: Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
