About this recipe

Experience the ultimate breakfast comfort with our fluffy buttermilk pancakes. These pancakes are not only light and airy but also feature a delightful tang from the buttermilk. Perfectly paired with maple syrup and a pat of butter, they promise a joyous start to any morning.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Directions

  1. 1

    Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.

  3. 3

    Gently combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients; do not overmix. Let rest for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly brush with oil or butter.

  5. 5

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.

  6. 6

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup.

Chef's tip

Allowing the batter to rest ensures the pancakes are extra fluffy as it gives time for the baking powder to activate.
