Description
Fluffy and comforting Old-Fashioned Pancakes, perfect for breakfast or brunch. Easy to make and versatile with toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla (if using) until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; do not overmix.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Stack and serve warm with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
Notes
Use fresh baking powder for the fluffiest pancakes. Don’t overmix the batter; a few lumps help create tender pancakes.
