Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

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

Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil or butter and let it heat up.

  2. 5

    Cook the Hotcakes

    Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each hotcake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Remove the hotcakes from the skillet and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as syrup, butter, or fruits.
