Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Buttermilk
• 2 units Large eggs
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together with a spatula; avoid overmixing. It's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the ingredients to fully hydrate.

Step 5

Heat a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with vegetable oil or butter.

Step 6

Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour approximately 1/2 cup of batter onto the skillet to create a pancake that fits a standard plate size. Gently spread the batter with the back of the ladle if needed.

Step 7

Cook the pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between pancakes.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
