Old Fashioned Pancakes

Step 1: Prepare the Milk Mixture

1. In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the milk and white vinegar. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes. This process will sour the milk, creating a homemade buttermilk substitute that gives the pancakes their classic flavor.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make sure the dry ingredients are well combined and free of lumps.

Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients

3. In another bowl, beat the egg and then add the melted butter and vanilla extract (if using). Pour the soured milk mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk until well combined.

Step 4: Create the Batter

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is a little lumpy. Overmixing can lead to dense pancakes.

Step 5: Cook the Pancakes
