A classic recipe for fluffy Old Fashioned Pancakes, perfect for cozy brunches or quick weeknight dinners.
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 large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
- Preheat your griddle over medium heat and add a touch of butter to coat.

Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter. Letting the batter rest for about 10 minutes before cooking can result in fluffier pancakes.
