Ingredients
- 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 unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix! A few lumps are okay.
- Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and fluffy.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary so they cook evenly.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
