Buttermilk Pancakes

Cultural Context

Traditionally served with maple syrup, they can also be topped with fruits, whipped cream, or nuts, making them versatile for various tastes.

1 cup all purpose flour
3 tablespoons white granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs
melted butter
optional splash of vanilla

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: low-fat yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk with vinegar

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil is a healthier fat; margarine is often cheaper.

1

Scoop out 1 cup of all purpose flour, toss it around to add air, and level it off with a butter knife.

2

Add 3 tablespoons of sugar to the flour (1 tablespoon is optional for less sweetness).

3

Add 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the dry ingredients and stir together.

4

In a separate bowl, measure 2 cups of buttermilk (or make homemade buttermilk by adding 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to regular milk and letting it sit for 30 minutes).

5

Add 2 eggs to the buttermilk and optionally a splash of vanilla.

6

Add melted and cooled butter to the wet ingredients and whisk together with a fork.

7

Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients using a rubber spatula, stirring until just combined (some lumps are okay).

8

Let the batter sit for about 10 minutes while preparing the cooking surface.

9

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle and add butter to melt.

10

Pour a measuring cup full of batter onto the griddle when the butter is sizzling.

11

Cook until bubbles form on top and the surface starts to dry out, then flip the pancake.

12

Cook the second side for a shorter time until golden brown, then transfer to a plate.

13

Repeat the process for additional pancakes, adding more butter to the griddle as needed.

14

For branded pancakes, use thinned batter to draw shapes on the griddle before pouring the full pancake batter over it.
