Start your day with these fluffy and flavorful pancakes, perfect for a cozy breakfast.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and sugar.
Sifting the dry ingredients together ensures a smooth and lump-free batter.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
Make sure the melted butter is slightly cooled to prevent cooking the eggs.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
Ensure the skillet is evenly heated before adding the batter.
Pour about a quarter cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set before flipping.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Press gently with the spatula to ensure even cooking.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings.
Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven while finishing the batch.
