Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted (plus extra for greasing)
  • 1 1/2 cups milk

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the vanilla extract, then whisk in the melted butter and milk. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and stir until just mixed; it’s okay if the mixture is lumpy.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Preheat a nonstick griddle or skillet to medium heat and add a light coating of butter. For each griddle cake, pour approximately 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot surface. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to set, about 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
  • Serve warm with extra butter and maple syrup, if desired.
