Instructions
  1. Combine the milk and vinegar in a large bowl; set aside and let the milk "sour" for 5 to 10 minutes.
  2. In a medium size bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract into the "soured" milk. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients; whisk until there are no lumps. Don't overmix the pancake batter.
  3. Heat an electric griddle or large skillet over medium heat; lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray. Pour batter onto griddle or skillet, using about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Carefully flip pancakes with a wide spatula, and cook until they are golden brown on the bottom.
Recipe Notes

Tips:

The milk and vinegar mixture is a standard substitution for buttermilk. If you prefer, substitute 1 cup buttermilk for the milk and vinegar. You can also use lemon juice in place of the vinegar.

 

Do not overmix the batter or your pancakes won't be light and fluffy.

 

Let batter sit for 5 to 10 minutes before making pancakes. You'll notice bubbles forming in the batter; don't stir these down, they are what will help make your pancakes tender and fluffy.
