Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1.25 cups whole milk
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0 nonstick cooking spray or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing; it's okay if the batter has a few lumps.

Step 4

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with nonstick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 5

Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the hot skillet to form individual cakes. Leave enough space between cakes for easy flipping.

Step 6

Cook the flannel cakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 7

Remove cooked flannel cakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm while cooking the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve warm with toppings of your choice, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
