1
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
2
Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

3
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be lumpy.
4
Preheat Cooking Surface
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or oil to grease the surface.
5
Cook Hotcakes
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each hotcake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
6
Serve
Remove from the skillet and serve hot with your favorite toppings like syrup, fruits, or whipped cream.
