Ingredients

2 cups of all-purpose/plain flour 240g
1 tsp of salt 5g
2 tbsp of baking powder 28g
3 tbsp of granulated sugar 38g
2 Large Eggs
1 3/4 cup of milk 438ml
1/4 cup of melted butter 55g
1 tsp. vanilla extract 5ml (optional)

Instructions

In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and sugar.

Next, take a large bowl and add the eggs and whisk them. Then add the milk. Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stovetop until just barely melted, but not super hot. Add that into the bowl and the vanilla if you are using it, and whisk.

Add the flour mixture about a third at a time, whisk it into the large bowl until all combined resulting in a nice thick pancake batter. If you like your pancakes thinner, you can add a few tablespoons more of milk even up to 1/4 cup or so.

Set the stovetop burner to medium or if using a griddle set it to 350 F/176 C. Spray it with cooking spray or use a bit of butter. Pour some pancake batter into the pan or on the griddle. I generally use a 1/2 cup measuring cup for nice large pancakes.

Cook the pancakes for 1 to 2 minutes on the first side until tiny bubbles form and the edges appear dry. It should be nice and golden brown on the bottom. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for 30 to 45 seconds, until golden brown.

Once cooked stack them on a plate and serve them with your favorite pancake toppings. Enjoy!
