1
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
2
Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4
Preheat the Pan
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If desired, lightly grease with additional butter or cooking spray.

5
Cook the Pancakes
For each pancake, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
6
Repeat
Continue with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
7
Serve
Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
