Ingredients
Scale

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar

- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Instructions
- Melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- In another bowl, stir together milk and egg.
- Create a well in the center of the flour mixture.
- Pour the melted butter, optional vanilla, and milk mixture into the well.
- Use a whisk to stir everything until just combined; the batter should be slightly thick and lumpy but well incorporated.

- Pour or scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
- Cook each side for 3-6 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.

Adjust the cooking time based on your stove’s heat settings.
For extra flavor, add chocolate chips or berries to the batter if desired.
