Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just mixed. Avoid overmixing; a few lumps are okay!
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
- For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the batter, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
