Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Cooking spray or additional butter for the skillet
Optional Toppings:
- Maple syrup
- Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- Sliced bananas
- Whipped cream
- Chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- 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.
Step 2: Heat the Skillet
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
- Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 4: Serve
- Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm in a low oven (about 200°F) while you cook the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, sliced bananas, whipped cream, or chocolate chips.
Enjoy!
