📝 Ingredients

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  2. 2
    In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg until light. Then, whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  3. 3
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. A few lumps are fine; do not overmix.
  4. 4
    Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes while you heat your griddle or non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
  5. 5
    Lightly grease the hot griddle. Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle, leaving some space between them.
  6. 6
    Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. 7
    Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.

💡 Notes

For a buttermilk substitute, add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to ¾ cup of regular milk and let it sit for 5 minutes before using. Do not overmix the batter; lumps are okay and help keep the pancakes tender. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while you finish the batch.
