Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the camel milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
