Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons extra butter or oil, for cooking

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of baking soda, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of buttermilk, 2 large eggs, 4 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula. Make sure not to overmix; it's okay to leave some lumps in the batter.

Step 4

Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with extra butter or oil.

Step 5

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Allow to cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes more.

Step 7

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or nuts.
