Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 3 TBSP sugar
  • 3 TBSP butter melted
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cup flour
  • 1 TBSP vanilla
  • 2 TBSP baking powder
  • ½ cup maple syrup for topping
  • 3-4 TBSP butter to grease the pan

Instructions

  • Whisk the eggs and sugar in a medium sized mixing bowl until creamy. Add the milk and melted butter and whisk again. Add in vanilla extract.
  • Combine the flour, salt, baking powder, then add to the wet ingredients. Whisk until mostly smooth; a few lumps are okay. Let batter sit at least 5 minutes; ideally 10 minutes, before cooking.
  • Heat a frying pan or griddle to medium heat, about 350 degrees F.
  • Brush pan with butter and drop about 2-3 TBSP pancake batter onto pan, giving each dollop of batter enough room to spread.
  • Cook each pancake until edges look dry and surface is covered in bubbles, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook opposite side for about 1 minute. Remove from pan and store cooked pancakes on a pan in a warm oven until ready to serve.
  • Repeat until all pancake batter has been cooked.
  • Serve pancakes with butter and syrup for topping.
