2. Combine the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
Pour the wet mixture into the well of the dry ingredients.
3. Gently Mix the Batter
Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined—a few lumps are okay! Overmixing can make pancakes dense.
Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes to allow the baking powder to activate.
4. Preheat and Grease the Pan
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
5. Cook the Pancakes
Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until golden brown.
6. Serve and Enjoy!
Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm.
