Store Bought Mix

You can also make these with your favorite boxed pancake mix. Make it as directed on the package and skip to step #4.

Equipment Notes

Make the pancakes in an aluminum pan that DOES NOT have a nonstick finish. You will not get flat pancakes if you use a pan with a nonstick finish. Instead, they will be domed in the center. Use a 6-inch pan for large pancakes or 4-inch pans for smaller ones. Foil baking pans work fine.

1. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir to mix.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, and oil. Stir to mix and break up the egg yolk.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until most lumps are gone. If you are adding something, like blueberries, chocolate chips, or sprinkles, stir them in now.
4. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. Use this time to preheat the air fryer at 370 degrees F for 3-5 minutes.
5. Spray your pan(s) with a little cooking spray. Add 1/4 cup batter to 4-inch pans and 1/2 cup to 6-inch pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter out to the edges of the pan.
6. Air fry at 370 degrees F for 6-7 minutes until they are golden brown on top. They will cook on both sides, so there is no need for flipping.
7. Use oven mitts to remove the pans from the air fryer. Dump them over onto a cooling rack, and the they should fall out. Then make another batch.
8. Serve them immediately or put them in a preheated 200-degree F oven to keep warm until they are all done.
