Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 2 cups buttermilk
• 2 large eggs
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon oil or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and uniform.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.

Step 4

Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes while you preheat your skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with oil or butter.

Step 5

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot skillet or griddle. Use the back of the ladle or spoon to spread the batter slightly 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 carefully and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

Step 7

Continue cooking the pancakes in batches, greasing the pan as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
