Instructions:
Step 1: Preparing the Batter
Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pancakes.
Step 2: Cooking the Pancakes
Preheat the Griddle: Preheat a non-stick griddle or a large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
Cook the Pancakes: Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1-2 minutes more. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Keep Warm: Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed.
Step 3: Serving the Pancakes
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruits, maple syrup, whipped cream, chocolate chips, nuts, or additional butter.
Tips for Perfect Pancakes
Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure the milk and egg are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
Do Not Overmix: Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined to avoid tough pancakes.
