Ingredients
Dry
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3½ tsp baking powder
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1½ tsp cinnamon (my addition)
Wet
- 1¼ cups milk
- 3 Tbsp butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract (my addition)
Method
- Sift or whisk the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the middle and add the milk, melted butter, egg and vanilla. Mix just until smooth.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or pan over medium-high heat.
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form and the edges look dry, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip and cook until golden on the other side. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
Serve with: Butter and real maple syrup. Keep cooked pancakes warm on a pan in a 200°F oven while you finish the batch.
