Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 3.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1.25 cups milk
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons additional butter or oil (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and egg. Whisk thoroughly until the ingredients are fully incorporated.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

Step 4

Heat a griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.

Step 5

Once the griddle is hot, ladle about 1/4 cup of batter onto the surface for each griddlecake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Carefully flip the griddlecakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar.
