Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

2 cups all purpose flour

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1.5 tablespoons baking powder (make sure it’s fresh)

Liquid ingredients

1 large egg

2 cups minus one tablespoon reduced fat (2%) milk

2 tablespoons melted butter, slightly cooled

1 tablespoon high quality vanilla extract

Preparation

Directions

  1. Mix the dry ingredients well, with a fork.

  2. Beat egg. Add milk, vanilla and butter, and mix well.

  3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients mixture. Slowly pour the liquid ingredients mixture into the well, gently mixing as you pour, using a fork. DO NOT OVER MIX. Batter should be thick and lumpy.

  4. Heat two 12-inch skillets over medium heat for about 4 minutes. Add a little oil to each skillet and brush to coat. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto three spots on each skillet. Cook until large bubbles begin to appear, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1 more minute.
