Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons extra butter or oil, for cooking
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of baking soda, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of buttermilk, 2 large eggs, 4 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula. Make sure not to overmix; it's okay to leave some lumps in the batter.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with extra butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Allow to cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes more.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or nuts.
