Prepare the Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract if using, until thoroughly combined. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. It's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy. -

Flip Pancakes:
Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through -
Serve:
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate chips. -
Yield:
This recipe makes approximately 8-10 medium-sized pancakes, serving 2-4 people depending on appetite and serving size. Adjust the quantities accordingly if you need more or fewer pancakes. Enjoy your homemade pancakes!
