- Cooking method: Stovetop
- Prep time: 5 minutes
- Cook time: 10 minutes
- Cuisine type: Breakfast
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg, beaten
- Butter or cooking spray for the pan
Cooking Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and beaten egg to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; lumps are okay.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and coat it lightly with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or cooking spray as needed.

Suggestions
- Alternative Ingredients: Substitute almond milk for regular milk for a dairy-free option. Add a teaspoon of cinnamon for an extra flavor punch.
- Garnishing Options: Top with fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Cooking Tips: Preheat your pan properly to avoid sticking, and don’t over-mix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy. Channel your inner pancake artist and create funny shapes!
