Enjoy these fluffy buttermilk pancakes, perfect for breakfast or brunch. Simple to make with minimal ingredients, they are deliciously light and satisfying.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional

Instructions

  • In a large bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the dry ingredients.
  • Add buttermilk, eggs, and optional vanilla extract; whisk until just combined; small lumps are fine.
  • Allow the pancake batter to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Grease with non-stick spray or brush with butter or oil.
  • Pour 1/3 – 1/2 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
  • Flip pancakes when bubbles appear, and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  • Serve hot with butter and syrup.

Notes

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
Adjust the butter or oil used on the griddle based on your preference for richness.
They can be made ahead and reheated in a toaster oven.
