PERFECT BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



Perfect Buttermilk Pancakes image

Pancakes are the hero of the breakfast table, and their very taste can even be described as "deeply breakfasty": eggy, salty, just this side of sweet. A little indulgent and yet still somehow appropriate first thing in the morning, those fluffy stacks with crisped edges, dripping with maple syrup, are everything you want, exactly when you want them. Here is how to get to them right every time, whether it's a lazy Sunday morning or a hurried weekday.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Vegetable, canola or coconut oil for the pan

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and kosher salt together in a bowl. Using the whisk, make a well in the center. Pour the buttermilk into the well and crack eggs into buttermilk. Pour the melted butter into the mixture. Starting in the center, whisk everything together, moving towards the outside of the bowl, until all ingredients are incorporated. Do not overbeat (lumps are fine). The batter can be refrigerated for up to one hour.
  • Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet, preferably cast-iron, over low heat for about 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Turn heat up to medium-low and using a measuring cup, ladle 1/3 cup batter into the skillet. If you are using a large skillet or a griddle, repeat once or twice, taking care not to crowd the cooking surface.
  • Flip pancakes after bubbles rise to surface and bottoms brown, about 2 to 4 minutes. Cook until the other sides are lightly browned. Remove pancakes to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet, and keep in heated oven until all the batter is cooked and you are ready to serve.

THE BEST BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



The Best Buttermilk Pancakes image

We're transporting you to the old-fashioned diner for a plate of fluffy buttermilk pancakes. Our recipe has both baking powder for an airy and light interior and baking soda for that even golden-brown exterior. We love the tang of buttermilk and the richness of butter for an even cakier stack. This recipe is easy enough for a fast breakfast with the kids or doubled for a weekend brunch with friends.

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.

THE BEST (NO KIDDING) BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



The Best (No Kidding) Buttermilk Pancakes image

I know there are a zillion pancake recipes already but I went thru and this one IS different and SO good. I think that mixing well, sifting the dry ingredients, and carefully folding in the egg whites makes these so very fluffy. And, wonder of wonders, you can freeze the batter, defrost in the fridge, and the pancakes are perfect. One more thing--you must use real maple syrup and you must warm it before serving it with the pancakes.

THE PERFECT BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



The Perfect Buttermilk Pancakes image

This is a staple in my house on the weekends. Its a hit with my kids and guests that come over. It can easily be double or tripled. They freeze very well so no batter goes to waste. Warm in microwave and they taste like they were just made. You can even dress it with whipped cream and/or fruit of your choice.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup buttermilk
1 cup flour
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Blend the buttermilk, eggs, butter, and vanilla until well combined.
  • Slowly add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Continue to blend until the batter is thick and smooth.
  • Optional: For thinner pancakes - add buttermilk to it out to the consistency you like. For thicker pancakes - add a little more flour to desired thicknessHeat a non-stick frying pan on medium heat and coat it with non-stick spray.
  • Pour 1/3 cup of the pancake batter onto the pan. Watch for the pancake to form bubbles on the surface and the griddle side of the pancake golden.
  • Gently but quickly flip the pancake over and cook for 30 seconds or until golden.
  • Spray non-stick spray between cooking new pancakes.
  • Serve hot with butter and maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Buttermilk is the key: Buttermilk gives pancakes a tender and fluffy texture, and it also helps to brown them nicely. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined, and then stop.
  • Use a hot griddle: A hot griddle is essential for getting evenly cooked pancakes. Preheat your griddle or frying pan over medium heat before you start cooking.
  • Butter or oil: You can use butter or oil to grease your griddle. If you're using butter, make sure it's melted. If you're using oil, use a high-heat oil like canola or vegetable oil.
  • Pour the batter in small circles: Use about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Pour the batter in a small circle onto the hot griddle. Don't spread the batter out, as this will make the pancakes thin and crispy.
  • Cook the pancakes until they are golden brown: Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown. Flip the pancakes once, when bubbles form around the edges and the bottoms are golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately: Pancakes are best served immediately, while they are still hot and fluffy. You can serve them with butter, syrup, fruit, or your favorite toppings.

Conclusion:

These no-kidding buttermilk pancakes are the perfect way to start your day. They are light, fluffy, and flavorful, and they are sure to please everyone at the table. Follow these tips for making perfect pancakes every time.
