Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1.25 cups Buttermilk
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray or butter

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg, then whisk in the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing; a few lumps are fine.

Step 4

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. This resting step helps create extra fluffy pancakes.

Step 5

Heat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 6

Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated surface for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set (about 2-3 minutes).

Step 7

Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as necessary between batches.

Step 9

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