Pancake Batter

Serving

Method

Prepare the Pancake Batter

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg until smooth. Melt the 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and let it cool slightly before adding to the wet mixture.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Cooking the Pancakes

  1. 4

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with a small amount of butter.

  2. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 6

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Remove from heat and keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.

Serving the Pancakes

  1. 7

    Serve

    Stack the pancakes on a plate. Top with 2 tablespoons of butter and drizzle with 100% maple syrup to taste. Enjoy your Sam's Stack!
