Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Buttermilk
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 as needed Butter or oil (for greasing the skillet)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix—small lumps are okay.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.

Step 5

Using a ladle or 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the heated skillet, spreading it thinly by gently tilting the skillet to distribute the batter.

Step 6

Cook each pancake for about 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 30-60 seconds, or until the bottom is golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the pancake from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, powdered sugar, or whipped cream.
