🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1.25 cups Buttermilk

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar until well combined.

2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently using a spatula or wooden spoon, being careful not to overmix. The batter should have some lumps for tender pancakes.

4. Fold in the butterscotch chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading slightly with the back of a spoon if necessary.

7. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottom.

8. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

9. Serve the butterscotch pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, butterscotch sauce, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
