Ingredients

Servings4

Yields 8 pancakes

  • (1 cup) all-purpose flour
  • (2 tablespoons) sugar
  • (2 teaspoons) baking powder
  • (1/2 teaspoons) salt
  • (1 cup) milk
  • (1) large egg
  • (2 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
  • (1 teaspoon) vanilla extract
  • maple syrup for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

  4. 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a bit of butter or cooking spray.

  5. 5

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  7. 7

    Remove from the skillet and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter.

  8. 8

    Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup drizzled on top.
