Directions
1. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and baking powder. Whisk until well blended.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolks with milk and vanilla extract.
3. Combine
Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; a few lumps are fine.
4. Beat Egg Whites
Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until stiff peaks form. Gently fold them into the batter.
5. Cook Pancakes
Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of oil or butter.
Pour about 1 tablespoon of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
6. Serve
Remove from pan and repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
