Pancake Batter

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing 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

    Mix Together

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
