Pancake Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- 2
Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the buttermilk and melted butter until well combined.

Mix Together
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Heat the Griddle
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can add a little butter or oil to the surface if needed.

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