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 slightly cooled)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0 cooking spray or butter (for greasing the griddle)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; small lumps are okay.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or butter.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Use the back of the measuring cup or a spoon to lightly spread the batter into a circle if needed.
Step 6
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover them loosely with foil to keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed between batches.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy!
