Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1.25 cups root beer (carbonated)
• 0.5 cups buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.25 teaspoons root beer extract
• 0 as needed non-stick cooking spray or butter

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a separate medium-sized bowl, mix the root beer, buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract, melted butter, and root beer extract. Whisk until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.

Step 4

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray or butter.

Step 5

For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.

Step 7

Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite syrup, whipped cream, or a drizzle of root beer reduction for an extra flavor boost!
