Time 25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
¾ teaspoon salt
3 cups buttermilk
½ cup milk
3 eggs
⅓ cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat together buttermilk, milk, eggs and melted butter. Keep the two mixtures separate until you are ready to cook.
  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. You can flick water across the surface and if it beads up and sizzles, it's ready!
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, using a wooden spoon or fork to blend. Stir until it's just blended together. Do not over stir! Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/2 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

GRANDMA'S BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



Grandma's Buttermilk Pancakes image

"I always knew my grandmother's buttermilk pancakes were special," says Christopher Hirsheimer. "I loved them, and I loved to help her in the kitchen. My first job was to separate the eggs for her. Then I'd whip up the whites into thick, billowy mounds. Finally, she would start heating the griddle and would test it by flicking water on it, and when little beads danced across the hot metal, it was time to begin. Standing at her post at the stove, she flipped batch after batch until our big hungry family was fed."

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large eggs, separated
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons melted butter, plus more butter for serving
1 cup cake flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Lightly grease a cast-iron pan or griddle with vegetable oil, wiping off excess with a paper towel. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks into the buttermilk, then whisk in the butter. In another bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then sift these dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture. Lightly whisk together until the batter is just mixed (a few lumps won't hurt). In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with a whisk until soft peaks form. Use a rubber spatula to fold them into the batter. Don't overwork the batter; keep it light and fluffy.
  • Heat the griddle over medium-high heat until hot. (To test, flick a bit of water onto the pan; it'll bead up and dance if it's hot enough.) Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle. Cook until little holes appear on the surface and the cooked side of the pancake is golden brown (lift the edge to check), about 1 minute on each side. Don't worry if the first one or two don't turn out well-that's normal. Continue making pancakes, regreasing the pan as needed. Stack pancakes on a plate, slather generously with butter, and pour on a few good glugs of real maple syrup. Makes 4 batches of 3 pancakes (4" in diameter).

I found this recipe while searching for a fluffy pancake.

Provided by KRISTINE KLAERNER

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 c all purpose flour
1 1/4 c well shaken buttermilk
1/2 c melted unsalted butter

2 Tbsp granulated sugar

  • 3. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in pan. When it foams, ladle 1/4 cup batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles cover the top, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, another 1 minute. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with topping of your choice.

Yield Makes about 22 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk
3 large eggs, separated
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Butter
Pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Whisk flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and salt in large bowl to blend. Add buttermilk, egg yolks and vanilla and whisk until smooth (batter will be very thick). Using electric mixer, beat whites in medium bowl to soft peaks. Add remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and beat until stiff but not dry; fold into batter.
  • Melt butter on griddle or in heavy large skillet over medium-low heat. Working in batches, pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto griddle. Cook until pancakes are golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plates. Serve with syrup.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Always use the freshest ingredients you can find for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough pancakes. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking allows the gluten to relax, resulting in lighter and fluffier pancakes.
  • Use a hot griddle: A hot griddle is essential for getting crispy edges on your pancakes. Heat the griddle over medium-high heat before cooking.
  • Cook the pancakes in batches: Don't overcrowd the griddle. Cook the pancakes in batches to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Flip the pancakes carefully: Use a spatula to gently flip the pancakes. Avoid flipping them too often, as this can result in them breaking.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately: Pancakes are best served hot off the griddle. Top them with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Buttermilk pancakes are a classic breakfast food that is loved by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect buttermilk pancakes every time. So next time you're looking for a delicious breakfast, give these buttermilk pancakes a try. You won't be disappointed!
