Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1¾ cups buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup melted butter
- oil for frying butter or cooking spray
Instructions
- In a large mixing 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. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as it can lead to dense pancakes.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray, oil or butter.
- Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet, spreading it slightly with the back of the cup to form a round shape. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the buttermilk pancakes warm with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
