01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

10 - Maple syrup, honey, or milk

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl until well dispersed.
02 - Whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until fully blended.
03 - Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just united. Do not overmix; allow for minor lumps.
