Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 cups Buttermilk
• 2 units Large eggs
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently stirring with a spatula. Mix until just combined—some lumps are perfectly fine. Do not overmix as this can result in dense pancakes.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat with butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 5

Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the heated skillet to form pancakes. Space them apart to prevent overcrowding.

Step 6

Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the cooked pancakes from the skillet and place on a plate. Cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while cooking additional batches.

Step 8

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