Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Low-fat buttermilk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 as needed Cooking spray or additional unsalted butter for greasing
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the low-fat buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 3
Make a well in the dry mixture and pour the wet ingredients into it. Stir gently until just combined. It's okay if there are a few lumps; over-mixing can make the pancakes tough.
Step 4
Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a swipe of unsalted 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 are set, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1-2 minutes more.
Step 7
Keep pancakes warm by placing them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a low oven until all pancakes are cooked.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of low-sodium toppings such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
