Instructions

Split the vanilla bean and scrape out the seeds.
Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Whisk milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla seeds in another bowl.
Gently combine wet and dry ingredients until just mixed.
Heat a buttered pan over medium heat.
Pour batter and cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook until golden.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. You can substitute vanilla extract if needed, but real vanilla bean adds deeper flavor. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for later.
