Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 0.25 cup Whole milk
- 1 unit Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, whole milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.
Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with butter, syrup, or your favorite toppings.
