Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil (e.g., vegetable or canola)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are normal and will ensure fluffy pancakes.
Let the batter rest for 5 minutes at room temperature to allow the ingredients to meld and the baking powder to activate.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil.
Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop the pancake batter onto the hot skillet, spacing pancakes at least 2 inches apart. Gently spread the batter if needed to form an even round shape.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully using a spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, re-greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
