Pancake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the batter

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar.

  2. 2

    Combine wet ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.

  3. 3

    Mix wet and dry ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Preheat the pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.

  5. 5

    Cook the pancakes

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve and enjoy

    Serve the pancakes warm, dusted with confectioners sugar. Add your choice of toppings: chocolate chips, banana slices, blueberries, or Nutella.
