Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (or vegetable oil)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
-
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using). Whisk until well combined.
-
Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
-
Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease it with butter or oil if desired.
-
Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
-
Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
