Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoon white sugar
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Add the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract, then mix until everything is evenly combined.
  2. Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour about ⅓ cup of batter into the center of the pan. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges turn golden. Flip and cook for another minute, or until the other side is golden as well. Continue with the remaining batter.
  3. To keep pancakes warm while you finish cooking, transfer them to a plate and cover with a towel.
  4. Serve warm with butter, syrup, and fresh fruit of your choice.
 
Notes
  • For evenly browned pancakes, avoid greasing the pan if your skillet is truly nonstick.
  • If your pan tends to stick, lightly oil it before cooking.
