Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons neutral oil or unsalted butter (for greasing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of neutral oil or butter.
For each pancake, scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet. Use the back of the scoop or a spoon to gently spread the batter into a circle, if necessary.
Cook the pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
Flip the pancake carefully with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the underside and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of whipped cream.
