Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups milk
1 large egg
3 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg, and melted butter; mix until smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 1-2 minutes more.

Tips

For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
Keep pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while cooking the rest.
Add blueberries, chocolate chips, or sliced bananas to the batter for variation.
