Directions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with the vegetable oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then turn and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until golden. Serve with the maple syrup.
