Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups buttermilk
- 1 unit large egg
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil or butter (for greasing the pan)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly, then add the buttermilk, honey, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until smooth and well blended.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined; small lumps in the batter are fine. Avoid overmixing to ensure fluffy pancakes.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking oil or butter.
Step 5
Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the skillet for each pancake, leaving space between them to spread.
Step 6
Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through, another 2 minutes.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while repeating with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Step 8
Serve the Henny Penny Pancakes warm, drizzled with additional honey or syrup, and enjoy with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, whipped cream, or nuts.
