Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons melted butter, plus extra for cooking
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Make a well in the center and pour in milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Mix until just combined; batter should be lumpy.
- Heat a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
- Pour about 1/4 cup batter for each pancake onto the hot surface. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1-2 minutes more.
- Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with butter and maple syrup.
Tips
- Do not overmix the batter; lumps are okay for fluffier pancakes.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for extra fluffiness.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while cooking the rest.
