Ingredients
Scale:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups buttermilk (room temperature)
2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Fresh fruit (bananas, blueberries, strawberries) for toppings
Maple syrup for serving
Whipped cream for serving
Nuts (walnuts, pecans) for serving
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula until just combined. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes.
Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
For each pancake, pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Transfer the pancakes to a warm plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
