Ingredients
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1¼ cups buttermilk (room temperature)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.
Step 2: Cook the Pancakes
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter.
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Step 3: Serve
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with butter and warm maple syrup.
- Serve with fresh berries, whipped cream, or any toppings of your choice.
Enjoy your delicious, fluffy buttermilk pancakes!
