Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 cups Buttermilk
• 2 Large eggs
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Nonstick cooking spray or butter (for the griddle)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. A few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine—do not overmix, or the pancakes may turn out tough.

Step 4

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the baking powder and baking soda to activate, ensuring fluffy pancakes.

Step 5

Preheat a nonstick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with nonstick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 6

Once the griddle is hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the surface for each pancake. Spread out slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.

Step 7

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm in a low oven if necessary. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of whipped cream.
