1 cup self-raising flour
1/2 tsp baking powder

Instructions

Add self-raising flour and baking powder to a large bowl (add sugar at this point if using, see note 1).
In a separate bowl, whisk the milk and egg. Add the butter and vanilla extract. The butter may go a little lumpy in the mixture as it cools, and that’s okay.
Add the wet ingredients to the flour and whisk until combined.
Preheat a non-stick pan on medium-low heat. The low heat stops the pancakes from browning too quickly on the outside. Add a drizzle of olive oil to the pan if it needs it.
Use an ice cream scoop to dollop the mixture into the pan. The pancakes will need to cook for 1-2 minutes per side. Place a lid on the pan halfway through cooking to help the pancakes cook through.
Serve immediately with your favourite toppings. This recipe will make 8 pancakes.

Notes

Note 1 – This recipe does not include sugar. The pancakes are sweetened with toppings. Add 1/4 cup of caster sugar to your dry mix for a sweet batter.

MAKE AHEAD AND LEFTOVERS – Refrigerate cooked pancakes for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw completely overnight in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave or eat cold.
