Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 4 TB sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ⅔ tsp table salt
  • 2 large eggs room temp
  • 4 TB salted butter melted
  • 1 ¾ cups real buttermilk
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • Oil for cooking

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a bowl, use a hand whisk to combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well incorporated.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, butter, and buttermilk until well combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until dry flour streaks are gone; some little lumps are fine.
  3. Heat a large skillet with low sides, coated with enough oil to prevent sticking, over medium heat. Pour batter by 1/4 cup fulls of batter; once bubbles appear and start to pop on top surface, gently flip pancakes and continue cooking until golden brown on both sides. Serve with desired toppings.

Notes

  • If buttermilk isn't available, use: 1 TB freshly squeezed lemon + enough whole milk to reach the 1 3/4 cups needed. Let mixture sit at room temp for at least 15 minutes before using. Another easy option is Buttermilk Powder, which lasts a long time in your fridge.
