Description

Fluffy and indulgent buttermilk pancakes that are perfect for any breakfast occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Butter or oil, for greasing the pan

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs and whisk them with the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined.
  4. Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes while preheating your pan over medium heat.
  5. Lightly grease the cooking surface with butter or oil.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface.
  7. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Transfer to a warm plate or keep in the oven while finishing the remaining pancakes.
  9. Serve with maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.

Notes

Allowing the batter to rest helps develop flavor; avoid overmixing for best results.
