Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

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

Cooking

  1. 3

    Combine Mixtures

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

  2. 4

    Heat the Pan

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

  3. 5

    Cook Pancakes

    Pour about 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.

  4. 6

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 7

    Serve

    Serve warm with maple syrup and fresh berries if desired.
