Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1 tsp vinegar)

1 large egg

1 tablespoon melted butter (plus more for greasing the pan)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

        Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter.

          Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.

            Serve: Transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep them warm in a low oven while you repeat with the remaining batter.

              Optional Toppings: Serve warm pancakes with a drizzle of maple syrup, a sprinkle of extra cinnamon, or even a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
