Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 2 cups buttermilk
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 0 as needed non-stick spray or butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step 4

For Pancakes: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with non-stick spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 5

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 7

For Waffles: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease with non-stick spray or butter.

Step 8

Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron (amount varies depending on your model). Close and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 9

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