Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
- 2 1/4 cups low-fat buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
- light olive oil (to spray or brush the work surface)
Instructions
- Dry Ingredients - In a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Wet Ingredients - In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until blended. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and whisk everything together by hand until just moistened.
- Add melted butter while whisking gently and mix just until incorporated. The mixture will still be lumpy. DO NOT overmix or your pancakes will be flat.*
- Preheat a large skillet over medium heat, or a griddle between 325-350˚F. Spray or brush the cooking surface with oil. If you plan to keep cooked pancakes warm, preheat the oven to 200˚F.
- Sautee For 4-inch pancakes, add about 1/4 cup or an ice cream scoop, and for 6-inch pancakes, add about 1/3 cup of batter to the skillet for each pancake. Saute about 3 minutes per side. Flip once the pancakes are golden brown on the first side and you see bubbles start to form and pop on the surface.
