Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until fully combined.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl. Stir gently until just combined; some lumps are okay. Do not overmix.

  2. 4

    Preheat Cooking Surface

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter or oil to coat the surface.

  3. 5

    Cook Pancakes

    For each pancake, pour about 2-3 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  4. 6

    Serve

    Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
