Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 3.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1.25 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 0.25 cup for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
- Serve hot with your favorite toppings like syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.
Notes
For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by mixing 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar with 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
