12 pancakes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 tbsp buttermelted, plus more for the pan
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
  2. In a jug, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir just until no dry flour remains. A few lumps are fine.
  4. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes while the pan heats over medium heat.
  5. Brush the pan with butter and pour in 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form and the edges look set, about 2 minutes.
  6. Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes more, until golden. Serve warm with maple syrup.

Notes

No buttermilk? Stir 2 tbsp lemon juice into 2 cups milk and let it sit for 5 minutes.

Cooked pancakes freeze well for up to 2 months; reheat in the toaster.
