In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks, milk, and vanilla extract.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients until smooth.
In another bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, gradually add sugar, and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
On a preheated non-stick skillet over low heat, pour a dollop of batter and cover with a lid. Cook for about 5 minutes, flip, and cook for another 5 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
Serve immediately with maple syrup or your favorite topping.
