Cooking Steps

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: milk, beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface.
Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
