Brown Sugar Pancakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup brown sugar (pref dark.)
3 tablespoons butter, softened
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
2 cups milk, any kind
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt together brown sugar and butter.
Stir well, then set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking power and salt.
Pour in eggs, milk and vanilla extract, along with brown sugar mixture and stir until well combined.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat, until a drop of water skitters around when dropped on the surface.
Lightly grease with butter or oil, and drop pancake batter by 1/4-cup measures on the pan.
Cook until pancake is slightly dry around the edges and small bubbles form in the batter (bottom will be browned).
Flip and cook for another minute or so on other side, until bottom is browned.
Serve with Brown Sugar Maple Syrup (below).
