Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
Servings: 8 pancakes
- 1 cup buttermilk see note for substitute
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoons oil or butter melted
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
In a large bowl whisk together buttermilk, egg, vanilla, and oil.
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined - do not overmix, there may be a few lumps.
Use 1/3 cup measuring cup to scoop and pour batter onto a greased griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat.
Cook for 3-4 minutes until edges begin to look dry and bubbles form in the batter. Flip and cook another 2-3 minutes, undisturbed, until golden brown.
Repeat with remaining batter and serve with butter, syrup, or fruit.
- To make your own buttermilk, stir 1 tablespoon of white vinegar into 1 cup regular milk. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- Makes about 8-10 pancakes depending on how much batter your pour for each one. For more, smaller pancakes, use a 1/4 cup measuring cup or use an ice scream scoop for silver dollar pancakes.
- Add 1 cup of blueberries, or one diced apple and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, or one teaspoon of fresh lemon zest and one teaspoon of poppy seeds for some of my favorite variations.
