Classic Scotch Pancakes

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

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the milk and melted butter until smooth.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not over mix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to grease the surface.

Once the skillet is hot, pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
