Time 25m

Yield about 12 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for brushing
Butter and maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla and melted butter in a medium bowl until incorporated. Whisk the egg mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are a few lumps).
  • Heat a griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium heat; lightly brush with butter. Pour 1/2 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on top and the bottom is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. (If the pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium-low.) Flip and continue cooking until golden on the other side, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, brushing the pan with more butter as necessary. Serve with butter and syrup.

Yield Makes nine 6-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus 1/2 teaspoon for griddle
1 cup fresh blueberries (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat griddle to 375 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a medium bowl. Add eggs, buttermilk, and 4 tablespoons butter; whisk to combine. Batter should have small to medium lumps.
  • Heat oven to 175 degrees. Test griddle by sprinkling a few drops of water on it. If water bounces and spatters off griddle, it is hot enough. Using a pastry brush, brush remaining 1/2 teaspoon of butter or reserved bacon fat onto griddle. Wipe off excess.
  • Using a 4-ounce ladle, about 1/2 cup, pour pancake batter, in pools 2 inches away from one other. Scatter with berries, if using. When pancakes have bubbles on top and are slightly dry around edges, about 2 1/2 minutes, flip over. Cook until golden on bottom, about 1 minute.
  • Repeat with remaining batter, keeping finished pancakes on a heatproof plate in oven. Serve with Cranberry Syrup.

THE BEST BUTTERMILK PANCAKES EVER!



The Best Buttermilk Pancakes EVER! image

These are the best homemade buttermilk pancakes you will ever make. I've made these pancakes twice and both times my husband said they were the best he's ever eaten.

Categories     Pancakes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 c all purpose flour
3 Tbsp white sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
3 c buttermilk
1/2 c milk
3 eggs
1/3 c butter,melted

Steps:

  • 1. Fluffy, tall, soft homemade buttermilk pancakes, does it get any better than this! I halved this recipe since there are only 2 of us. There are a couple of things you want to remember when making them. The dry ingredients and wet ingredients are mixed in separate bowls and not combined until you're ready to make them. Let your buttermilk , milk and eggs sit out to room temperature before mixing with the cooled melted butter. If they are cold ,the melted butter will solidify and you'll have butter chunks. When you're ready to mix the dry and wet ingredients together, only mix until the ingredients are incorporated. The batter will be lumpy, you want it that way. I made my pancakes in a large cast iron skillet. I heated the skillet, before I made the pancakes I sprinkled water droplets in the pan , they danced and sizzled around the skillet and evaporated, it was time to make the cakes. I used my 1/2 cup measuring cup to measure the batter out. This gave me nice big pancakes. While they are cooking, don't turn the pancakes until you see little holes appearing on the tops of the cakes, check the bottom for a deep golden brown color then flip the cakes.
  • 2. 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.
  • 3. 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!
  • 4. 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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your pancakes.
  • Make sure your buttermilk is fresh. If it's not, your pancakes will be sour.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make your pancakes tough.
  • Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten to relax, which will make your pancakes more tender.
  • Cook your pancakes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, your pancakes will burn on the outside before they're cooked through on the inside.
  • Flip your pancakes only once. Flipping them too often will make them tough.
  • Serve your pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream are all great options.

Conclusion:

These buttermilk pancakes are the best you'll ever taste. They're light, fluffy, and packed with flavor. Follow the tips above and you'll be sure to impress your family and friends with your culinary skills.
