Description

Fluffy, tender, and kissed with golden edges, these buttermilk pancakes are a cozy breakfast classic that never disappoints. They’re easy to whip up and perfect for both leisurely weekend brunches and make-ahead weekday meals.


Ingredients

Scale

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 cups buttermilk

1 large egg

3 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for greasing)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  2. In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  5. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form and edges are set, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes.
  7. Keep pancakes warm in a 200°F oven until ready to serve.
