Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 egg, separated
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  2. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  4. Gently fold the beaten egg white into the batter until just combined. Do not overmix.

  • You can add a pinch of nutmeg to the dry ingredients for a subtle spice.
