Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter or oil for greasing the skillet
- Maple syrup and additional butter for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine the Mixtures:
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Heat the Skillet:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2–3 minutes.
- Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until golden brown. For another breakfast idea, try these Pumpkin Banana Loaf for a fall-inspired twist.
- Serve:
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with butter and maple syrup. Serve warm with sides like Crispy Roasted Potatoes for a complete breakfast spread.
