Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until combined.

  3. 3

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; leave a few lumps.

  4. 4

    Let the batter rest for 5 minutes while you heat a griddle or nonstick pan over medium heat.

  5. 5

    Lightly butter the pan and pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake.

  6. 6

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes.

  7. 7

    Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes more.

  8. 8

    Serve warm with maple syrup and butter.

Tips

  • Do not overmix the batter; lumps are fine and keep pancakes tender.

  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for extra fluffiness.

  • Flip only when bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
