In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together with a spatula or spoon. Do not overmix; lumps are okay in the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
To make the maple butter syrup, combine the maple syrup and 4 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the butter is melted and the syrup is smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.
Serve the warm pancakes stacked on a plate and drizzle generously with maple butter syrup. Optional: Add toppings like fresh berries, powdered sugar, or whipped cream.
