Ingredients
1cupmilk
1/2cupsour cream
1/4cupgranulated sugar
2largeeggs
1teaspoonvanilla extract
1 1/2cupsall purpose flour
2teaspoonsbaking powder
1teaspoonsalt
Butter for greasing the pan-about 3 tablespoons
Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
In a large bowl, add the milk, sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until combined. It’s ok to have small lumps of sour cream.
Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir just until no large clumps of dry flour remain, trying not to over mix. The batter should be very lumpy.
Melt about 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until lightly bubbling and light brown.
Ladle the batter into the skillet making 3-4 pancakes (about 1/4 cup of batter each). Cook 3-4 minutes, until bubbles form on top of each pancake and the bottoms are golden brown.
Flip the pancakes. Cook 1-2 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown.
Carefully wipe out any excess browned butter with paper towels. Repeat with the remaining butter and pancake batter.
Serve warm with maple syrup.
