Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar (adjust to your sweet tooth)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk (any kind you like)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional but tasty)

Instructions

  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl until well combined. No clumps—unless you enjoy tiny flour snowflakes, then go wild.
  • In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla together. This is your liquid dream team.
  • Pour the wet into the dry. Stir just until the batter comes together. A few lumps are fine; overmixing makes tougher pancakes.
  • Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. You’ll know it’s ready when a drop of batter sizzles.
  • Pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top and edges look set, about 2–3 minutes.
  • Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden. If you hear a dramatic hiss, that’s just you conquering breakfast.
  • Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the rest of the batter. Bask in the aroma and pretend you’re a brunch pro.
