In a medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, ube extract, and vanilla. If using ube halaya, whisk it in too.

Pour the wet into the dry and stir until you do not see dry flour, with a few small lumps remaining.

Heat a nonstick pan or griddle on medium or medium low. Lightly butter it.

Scoop batter (about 1/4 cup per pancake). Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.

Serve right away with your choice of toppings.
