Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and stir well with a whisk.

Combine milk, melted butter, and vanilla in a bowl. 

Slowly add beaten eggs to milk mixture (so eggs do not cook if the butter hasn’t cooled enough!) until all combined.

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add wet ingredients. 

Stir until combined (lumps are ok and are encouraged!)

Heat skillet over medium-high heat with a quarter-sized amount of canola oil.

Pour a tablespoon of batter into a hot pan.

Adjust heat if cake browns before small bubbles appear on top.

Flip and cook an additional minute.
