  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Make a well in the center and add milk, melted butter, vanilla, and egg.
  • Whisk the wet ingredients first, then gently fold into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes to help create extra fluffy pancakes.
  • Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low heat and lightly grease with butter.
