Description

Fluffy buttermilk pancakes are a classic breakfast favorite. Light, tender, and slightly tangy from the buttermilk, they pair perfectly with syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  1. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  2. In another bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, and melted butter.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  4. Heat a lightly greased skillet over medium heat.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter—it should be slightly lumpy.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for fluffier pancakes.
  • Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
