Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, for the pan
  • 0.5 cup pure maple syrup

Instructions:

  1. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, beat the egg, then stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
  2. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Use a whisk to stir gently just until the flour streaks disappear, leaving some lumps to ensure a fluffy texture.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add a knob of butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set and matte.
  4. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes until golden-brown. Serve immediately with a pat of butter and maple syrup.
