1In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Stir in the vanilla extract into the egg mixture.
Gradually mix in the milk to the egg mixture until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
Serve the pancakes hot with your choice of toppings such as syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.
