BUTTERMILK PANCAKES II



Buttermilk Pancakes II image

A very light and fluffy pancake that requires fresh buttermilk, but it's the best I've ever made!

Provided by BURYGOLD

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch     Pancake Recipes

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.

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.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

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.

3 eggs, separated
1 2/3 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Beat the yolks until pale and smooth.
  • Beat in the buttermilk and then the baking soda and mix well.
  • Sift in the dry ingredients mixing as you add; make sure the batter is smooth.
  • Add in the melted butter and mix well.
  • Beat the egg whites in another bowl until stiff.
  • Fold into the batter until no bits of white are visible.
  • Let batter stand about 20 minutes before making pancakes.

THE BEST BUTTERMILK BLUEBERRY PANCAKES



The Best Buttermilk Blueberry Pancakes image

Provided by Joanna Pruess

Categories     breakfast, side dish

Time 15m

Yield Between 18 and 22 four-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups sifted unleavened cake flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs, separated
2 cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 full cups frozen blueberries
Butter for greasing griddle or skillet

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt and whisk to blend. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, beat the egg yolks and buttermilk to blend slightly. In another bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy, add the cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff peaks form when beater is raised. Set aside briefly.
  • Add the yolk mixture to the flour mixture and mix lightly with a fork until flour is moistened. Stir in the cooled melted butter. The batter should be lumpy; overmixing makes tough pancakes. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites.
  • Preheat the griddle or skillet. Lightly butter the hot griddle before each batch of pancakes. Pour out the batter to make four-inch rounds. Quickly drop about six to eight frozen berries onto each pancake. Test for doneness by lifting a corner of a pancake with a metal spatula. When golden brown, turn over and cook about 30 seconds on the other side. Serve with warmed maple syrup, hickory bacon, sausages or scrapple.

BEST BUTTERMILK PANCAKES

The key to light and fluffy buttermilk pancakes from scratch? Don't overmix the batter-it should have small to medium lumps.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Pancake Recipes

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.

OLD-FASHIONED BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



Old-Fashioned Buttermilk Pancakes image

This is my mother's and grandmother's recipe from Western Tennessee. I have never found anything that comes close to the flavor of these pancakes. Add small berries for a different flavor boost. Serve with butter and maple syrup.

Provided by Tim Wong

Time 30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

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

Steps:

  • Preheat a griddle to medium heat, according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs, and butter; stir together until well blended but do not stir out all of the small lumps. Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough and rubbery.
  • Pour oil on a paper towel and spread over the griddle to grease lightly. Test the griddle with a few drops of water; water should dance across the surface and not instantly steam and evaporate.
  • Working in batches, drop 1/4 to 1/3 cupfuls batter for each pancake onto the hot 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 more minutes. Repeat to make remaining pancakes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh buttermilk. Fresh buttermilk will give your pancakes a light and fluffy texture. If you don't have fresh buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your pancakes tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking. This will help the gluten in the flour to relax and will make your pancakes more tender.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. Medium heat will help the pancakes cook evenly without burning them.
  • Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping the pancakes too often will make them tough. Flip them only once, when bubbles start to form around the edges.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Pancakes are best served hot and fresh. Top them with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk pancakes are a classic breakfast food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. By following the tips in this article, you can make the best buttermilk pancakes that are light, fluffy, and delicious.
