Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar

- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup yogurt (optional)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
- A splash of vanilla extract (optional)
- Local fruit or maple syrup (for serving)
Preparation:
- Mixing the Batter: In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- Mix Liquid Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the egg. Add milk, yogurt, melted butter or oil, and optional vanilla extract. Mix the ingredients thoroughly.
- Combine Mixtures: Add the dry ingredients to the liquid ingredients and stir. Mix until you have a smooth batter. The batter might have a few lumps, which is normal.
- Cooking: Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour a ladleful of batter onto the skillet. When bubbles form on the surface (about 1-2 minutes), flip the pancake with a spatula and cook the other side.
