Here's the skinny...
Ingredients
3 cups flour
2 Tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
5 1/4 baking powder
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 Tablespoons butter, melted & cooled
Directions
Mix flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add eggs, milk, vanilla, and butter into the well. Slowly stir until all the ingredients are incorporated. Batter will be slightly lumpy. Let batter sit for 5-10 minutes.
Meanwhile heat griddle over medium-high heat. Coat griddle with butter or canola oil. Pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake on the hot griddle. Flip pancake when bubbles start to rise to the top. Continue to cook pancake until bottom is golden brown.
Serve pancakes warm with butter and syrup. Enjoy! Makes 24-26 six inch pancakes.
