Ingredients
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for greasing the griddle)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, and the egg until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix—a few small lumps are okay.
Step 4
Heat a nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the griddle with a bit of butter and let it melt completely.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Use the back of the ladle to gently spread the batter into a 4-5 inch circle, if needed.
Step 6
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 7
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle with additional butter as needed between batches.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.
