Description
Fluffy and delicious pancakes made from scratch, perfect for any breakfast or brunch occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to ensure that all the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
- Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until everything is well combined.
- Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. It’s fine if the batter is lumpy—this helps keep the pancakes fluffy. Try not to overmix!
- Prepare the skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. If you’d like, you can add a little butter or oil to the skillet to prevent sticking.
- Cook pancakes: Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until you see bubbles form on the surface, which will take about 2-3 minutes. When the edges look slightly dry and the surface has bubbles, it’s time to flip. Cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
- Repeat: Continue cooking with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, like maple syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream. Enjoy your delicious homemade pancakes!
Notes
If you have leftovers, stack pancakes with parchment and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 2 months.
