# What You’ll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 cups all-purpose flour
02 -
2 teaspoons baking powder
03 -
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
04 -
1/4 teaspoon salt
05 -
1 1/4 cups whole milk
06 -
2 large eggs
07 -
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
08 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to ensure an even, airy blend.
02 -
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, then whisk until smooth and fully combined.
03 -
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Gently fold with a spatula or whisk until just incorporated; a few lumps in the batter are expected. Do not overmix.
04 -
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
05 -
Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges are slightly set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook an additional 1–2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
06 -
Transfer pancakes to a plate; cover lightly to keep warm. Serve immediately with your choice of toppings.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
For extra fluffiness, allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
