1. 1 cup all-purpose flour
2. 2 tablespoons sugar
3. 2 teaspoons baking powder
4. ¼ teaspoon salt
5. 1 cup milk
6. 1 egg
7. 2 tablespoons melted butter
8. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
9. Mixing bowl
10. Whisk

Collect all of the ingredients and kitchen tools before you begin.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir until they are evenly mixed.

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Place a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray if needed.

Use about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake and pour it onto the hot pan.

Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to look dry, about 2–3 minutes.

Carefully flip the pancake with a spatula and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.

Continue cooking the remaining batter until all of the pancakes are finished.

Serve the pancakes warm with butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or your favorite toppings.
