In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

In a separate medium bowl, mix 1 cup of milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour the wet mixture into the well. Fold the mixtures gently.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and grease lightly. A drop of water should sizzle on contact.

Pour approximately ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.

Keep the finished pancakes warm in a preheated oven at 200°F until serving.
