- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1½ tsp salt
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1½ teaspoon baking soda
- 3 eggs
- 2¼ cups milk
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons plus more unsalted butter
In a medium or large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs until light and fluffy. Add the milk, oil, vanilla, and vinegar together.
Slowly add the wet ingredients into the dry and fold until most of the flour is covered with the liquid. Do not overmix the batter.
In a skillet over low-medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Pour melted butter into the batter and gently mix.
Add more butter to the skillet or griddle. Pour or spoon about ¼ cup of pancake batter onto the skillet and then gently spread into a round shape with the back of your ladle.
Continue cooking over low-medium heat until bubbles appear on the top of the surface and the sides of the pancake begin to crisp and are golden. Flip the pancake with a spatula and continue cooking for another 2 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove batches to plates and serve with pecans and hickory or maple syrup and whipped butter.
