Ingredients
  

For the Pancakes
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • cooking spray for greasing the pan

Equipment

  • Medium bowl
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Large skillet
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Combine the milk and vinegar in a medium bowl. Set this mixture aside for 5 minutes to create sour milk.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Whisk the egg and melted butter into the soured milk mixture.
  4. Pour the dry flour mixture into the wet milk mixture. Whisk these together until all lumps are gone to form the batter.
  5. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Coat the skillet surface with cooking spray.
  6. Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look dry.
  7. Flip the pancake with a spatula and cook until the second side is browned. Repeat this process with the rest of the batter.
