Best Fluffy Pancakes

Directions

1. 1
   Combine together the flour, sugar (or sweetener), baking powder and salt in a large-sized bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the milk, slightly cooled melted butter, vanilla and egg. Use a wire whisk to the wet ingredients together first before slowly folding them into the dry ingredients. Then lightly whisk everything together until smooth (there may be a couple of lumps but that's okay). Set the batter aside and allow to rest while heating up your pan or griddle. (The batter will be thick and creamy in consistency. If you find the batter too thick -- doesn't pour off the ladle or out of the measuring cup smoothly, fold through a couple tablespoons of extra milk into the batter).
2. 2
   Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over low-medium heat and wipe over with a little butter to lightly grease pan.
3. 3
   Pour cup of batter onto the pan and spread out gently into a round shape with the back of your ladle or measuring cup.When the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip with a spatula and cook until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
4. 4
   Serve with honey, maple syrup, fruit, ice cream or frozen yoghurt, or enjoy plain!
