Soft and Fluffy Pancakes (Original video)

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 1 large free-range egg
• 1 1/4 cups milk
• 1/4 cup cooled melted butter
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla essence
• Butter for cooking

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a smaller bowl, mix together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla essence.
3. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Fold the batter together until there are no longer any large lumps.
4. Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-low heat and add a small amount of butter to melt.
5. Scoop out about 1/3 cup of batter and pour into the pan. Cook until air bubbles start to form on the top, then flip and cook for a further few minutes on the opposite side.
6. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as needed.
7. Serve the pancakes with maple syrup and your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
