Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups buttermilk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or butter (for greasing)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 3
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually pour in the wet mixture. Gently stir until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; avoid overmixing to ensure fluffy hot cakes.
Step 4
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil or butter.
Step 5
Using a 1/4 cup measure, pour batter onto the hot skillet to form round pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 6
Flip the hot cakes and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes more.
Step 7
Transfer cooked hot cakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Step 8
Serve hot with syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or any toppings of your choice. Enjoy Grandma Caddell's hot cakes fresh!
