Description

These fluffy buttermilk pancakes are a delightful breakfast choice, featuring a blend of basic ingredients that create a light and airy texture. Perfect for any topping, they bring warmth and comfort to your morning routine.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional

Instructions

  • In a large bowl or glass measuring cup, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  • Add buttermilk, lightly beaten eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture, whisking until just combined. It’s okay if there are small lumps.
  • Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to achieve optimal fluffiness.
  • Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and prepare it by spraying with non-stick cooking spray or brushing with butter or oil.
  • Pour 1/3 to 1/2 cup of batter onto the heated griddle for each pancake.
  • Cook until small bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  • Serve hot with butter and syrup.

Notes

Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
You can add mix-ins like chocolate chips or blueberries for variety.
For best results, ensure your griddle is properly preheated before pouring the batter.
