Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups milk
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 large egg

Instructions

Gather all ingredients.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Make a well in the center and add milk, melted butter, and egg. Mix until smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Pour or scoop about ¼ cup batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle.
Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form and edges look dry.
Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Repeat with remaining batter and serve warm.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Serve with maple syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
