Method

Pancake Batter

  1. 1

    Mix 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

    Combine Wet Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. If using, fold in the chocolate chips. Do not overmix; it's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Cooking Pancake

  1. 4

    Preheat the Pan

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

  2. 5

    Cook Pancake

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

  3. 6

    Keep Warm

    Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.

Cinnamon Butter

  1. 7

    Mix Cinnamon Butter

    In a small bowl, combine softened butter, powdered sugar, and ground cinnamon. Mix until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve Pancake

    Serve the pancake warm, topped with a dollop of cinnamon butter and drizzled with maple syrup. Accompany with two slices of cooked bacon and a kid’s drink if desired.
