Buttermilk Pancakes Recipe


Buttermilk Pancakes Recipe
This is a good basic pancake recipe. I've listed some substitutes for buttermilk below. The recipe can conceivably serve 4, but usually 2 of us manage to gobble up the whole batch.

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 C flour
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 3/4 C buttermilk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • vegetable oil for cooking

Directions
  1. Turn on oven to the lowest temperature setting (generally about 150 degrees F), and place a large serving platter inside to keep warm.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix buttermilk, eggs, butter, and vanilla to blend.
  4. Pour buttermilk mixture over the flour mixture, whisking until batter is smooth. (It should be thick, but fluid.)
  5. Brush griddle with vegetable oil.
  6. When hot, ladle approximately 1/4 C batter onto the griddle and cook until most of the bubbles that form on the surface pop and remain open, approximately 3 minutes. (The surface of the pancake should also get duller, and the underside of the pancake should be golden-brown.)
  7. Flip the pancake with a spatula, and cook for 1 minute longer.
  8. Remove the pancake to the platter in the oven to keep warm, and repeat with remaining batter.
  9. Serve hot with butter and maple syrup.

Love buttermilk. And we use to eat these a lot.

All I need to get is another electric frypan so I can do pancakes again. I love buttermilk pancakes.


Made these this morning for the family, and they were a hit! The recipe as posted produced pancakes that were just a bit too thick for my taste - I had to thin the batter with just a bit more buttermilk to get a slightly thinner pancake.
