Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 250g
- 4 Tablespoon white sugar
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 egg room temperature, large
- 4 Tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
- 1 cup milk room temperature, 280 ml
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- butter for cooking the hotcakes
Instructions
- Sift the flour thru a fine-meshed strainer over a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, milk and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until everything is incorporated. About 1 minute. Do not overbeat (small lumps are fine).
- Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet, over low heat for about 5 minutes. Add a little butter to the skillet (about ½ tablespoon) and turn heat up to medium–low.
- Using a measuring ¼ cup, ladle batter into the skillet. If you are using a large skillet or a griddle, repeat once or twice, taking care not to crowd the cooking surface with pancakes.
- Flip pancakes after bubbles rise to surface and bottoms brown, about 2 to 4 minutes. Cook until the other sides are lightly browned.
- Serve hotcakes immediately as they are ready, or keep them warm in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve.

Notes
- Make sure the eggs and milk are at room temperature to keep the butter from solidifying.
- For fluffy pancakes, make sure not to over beat the batter. It's okay to have a little lumps left on the batter.
