Buttermilk pancakes are a classic breakfast dish that is both fluffy and flavorful. Here’s a simple recipe for making buttermilk pancakes:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Cooking spray or extra butter for the pan
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs lightly with a fork. Then add in the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix the batter, or the pancakes will be tough.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with cooking spray or a small pat of butter.
- Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet. Cook until the edges begin to look set and bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more cooking spray or butter as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm with butter and maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
