Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl (flour, baking powder, sugar, salt) and make a well.
The rest of the ingredients are to be put in the center of the well (milk, egg, butter, and vanilla).
Work your way with the help of a spatula from the center of the well towards the outside mixing the ingredients into a homogeneous batter.
Melt a little butter in a skillet, or spray non-stick aerosol -although I personally prefer butter- and pour a bit of the batter with a ladle. Another option is to pour all the batter into a jar, and then pour a bit into the skillet.
When the pancakes are bubbly and almost dry, turn it. It’ll need an extra minute or so to be ready.
To serve them, you can put some crunchy bacon on the side or chopped fruit. Also, you can add some finely chopped pecan nuts to your batter. Very tempting, and delicious!
