There’s nothing quite as comforting and satisfying as a stack of fluffy homemade buttermilk pancakes to kick-start your morning. Whether you’re an experienced chef or a novice in the kitchen, making these delicious breakfast treats is easier than you might think. I’ll walk you through this recipe to create irresistibly fluffy buttermilk pancakes that will leave your taste buds singing with joy.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup of flour
2 tbsp cane sugar
3/4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking Soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
And most of all a pinch of love
Prep Batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, until well combined. In a separate bowl, the eggs and then add it to the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk the wet ingredients until they are fully incorporated.
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredient mixture and pour the wet ingredients into it. Gently fold mixture with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dry and wet ingredients are just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine. Overmixing can result in tough pancakes.
Rest the Batter
Allow the batter to rest for about 10-15 minutes. This resting time allows the gluten in the mix to relax, resulting in lighter and fluffier pancakes.
Preheat and Grease the griddle
While the batter rests, preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or cooking spray to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
Once the pan is hot, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look slightly set, which usually takes 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat this process until all the batter is used.
Serve your fluffy homemade buttermilk pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
For an extra touch of flavor, add blueberries, orange zest or juice, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts to the batter.
