Homemade Pancakes
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Directions:
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Make the Batter:
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined.
Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Cook Pancakes:
Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
Pour ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (about 2 minutes).
Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve:
Stack and serve warm with butter, syrup, or your favorite toppings.
