Step-by-Step Instructions
First, in a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. It’s always such a joy to see the dry ingredients come together seamlessly. In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly. Then, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined—don’t worry if there are a few lumps; it’s better to under-mix than over-mix!
