Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (see note 1)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk (see note 2)
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- butter and maple syrup or fresh fruit and whipped cream, for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter; mix until smooth.
- Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium high heat, greasing if desired (see note 3). Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
- When bubbles start to form on the first side, carefully flip and brown the second side. Repeat with remaining batter (you should have about 8 pancakes). Serve hot with butter and maple syrup or fresh fruit and whipped cream.
Notes
- Baking powder: This chemical leavener generates bubbles in the pancake batter to help make them light and fluffy; just like grandma or your favorite diner made.
- Buttermilk: To make your own buttermilk, in a small bowl, whisk 1 tablespoon lemon juice into 1 ¼ cups of milk. Let stand until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
- Oiling the skillet: If you love crispy edges on your pancakes, you’ll want to lightly grease your skillet with oil or butter before adding the batter. If using a non-stick skillet, you can skip the fat and cook the flapjacks in a dry skillet for a smooth, brown surface.
- Yield: This recipe makes about four 2-pancake servings, depending on how big you like them. Feel free to multiply the recipe as desired; it doubles and triples beautifully.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
