There is nothing quite like a stack of warm, fluffy pancakes on a slow weekend morning. Using buttermilk in your batter makes them incredibly tender and gives them that classic tangy flavor we all love.

Since buttermilk is not always a staple in every fridge, this recipe is a lifesaver when you have a little bit left over. It is simple, fast, and always hits the spot with a little maple syrup and butter on top.

🧺 Ingredients

2 cups all purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup melted butter

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
2
In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
4
Heat a greased skillet over medium heat.
5
Pour about a quarter cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
6
Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until the other side is golden brown.

💡 Tips

Serve these warm with fresh berries or a drizzle of warm maple syrup. If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge for up to three days and reheat them in your toaster.
