How to Make Buttermilk Pancakes

The best buttermilk pancakes recipe is made with basic ingredients like flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, and buttermilk. So much better than box mix - and you can even make the buttermilk pancake batter in advance and store it in the fridge. Fry them up in a cast iron skillet and serve warm with maple syrup and melted butter.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 and 1/2 cups (300g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg optional, but recommended
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 cups (454ml) full-fat buttermilk
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • Maple syrup and butter, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl add the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg; whisk well to combine.
  2. In a separate bowl add the eggs and lightly beat them with a whisk. Add in the buttermilk and vanilla and beat until well combined. Stir the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring just until everything is combined.
  3. Pour batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto a buttered hot pan or griddle, adding only a few at a time so that they do not blend together.
  4. Cook for about 2 minutes before flipping them over, or until small bubbles form on top. Cook on the second side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Repeat with all pancake batter.
  5. Serve pancakes warm, with syrup. See notes for freezing options.

Notes

  • To freeze: place cooled pancakes between layers of waxed paper, then place them in a freezer-safe plastic bag, squeezing out any excess air before sealing the bag and placing it in the freezer. Pancakes will keep in the freezer for 2 months. To reheat, heat your oven to 375 degrees (F). Place the pancakes in a single layer on a large baking pan; cover with tinfoil and heat in a preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or until warm. You may also microwave 3-4 pancakes at a time for about 40 seconds, or until heated through.
