Ingredients
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 ¼ cups milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Butter or oil for cooking
½ cup granulated sugar mixed with 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until evenly combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and gently fold them together with a spatula until a thick, slightly lumpy batter forms.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Scoop about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 minutes.

- Stack pancakes, repeat with remaining batter, and serve with syrup or whipped cream as desired.
