Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large egg (or 1/4 cup applesauce as an alternative)

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
