Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Dry Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

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

  4. 4

    Preheat the Griddle

    Heat a non-stick griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of butter or oil.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the preheated griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 6

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Remove the pancakes from the griddle and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
