IHOP Fluffy Pancakes

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

In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. It's okay if there are a few lumps; do not overmix.

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

Remove from skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
