Pancake Batter

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.

  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. Stir gently until just combined. The batter may be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.

  4. 4

    Heat the Griddle

    Preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve warm with maple syrup or Jamaica syrup and a dollop of whipped butter.
