Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.25 cups root beer (carbonated)
- 0.5 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.25 teaspoons root beer extract
- as needed non-stick cooking spray or butter
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, mix the root beer, buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract, melted butter, and root beer extract. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite syrup, whipped cream, or a drizzle of root beer reduction for an extra flavor boost!
