Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.

  4. 4

    Cook Pancakes

    Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.

French Toast Preparation

  1. 5

    Mix Egg Mixture

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

  2. 6

    Soak Bread

    Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.

  3. 7

    Cook French Toast

    Place the soaked bread slices onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining slices.
