Old-Fashioned Buttermilk Pancakes
Description
Just like grandma used to make, this recipe for old-fashioned buttermilk pancakes is perfect for a lazy weekend breakfast. Serve with butter and syrup.
Ingredients
•
2 cups all-purpose flour
•
2 tablespoons white sugar
•
1 teaspoon baking powder
•
1 teaspoon baking soda
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
2 cups buttermilk
•
2 large eggs
•
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
•
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
Directions
1
Preheat a griddle to medium heat according to manufacturer's instructions.
2
Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs, and butter; stir until well blended but some small lumps remain. Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough and rubbery.
3
Pour oil on a paper towel; spread over griddle to lightly grease. Splash griddle with a few drops of water to test it; water should dance across the surface and not instantly steam and evaporate.
4
Drop batter by ¼ to ⅓ cupfuls onto the griddle; cook until the sides start to shine and look stiff, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
