pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/4 cups milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or skillet over medium heat.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and bubbles form on the surface.
7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

• For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
• A non-stick griddle or skillet is recommended for easy pancake making.
• To prevent sticking, lightly grease the griddle with butter or cooking spray.
• Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
