This recipe for Homemade Buttermilk Pancakes is the only pancake recipe you will ever need to get a stack of fluffy and delicious pancakes on the table fast! This is an easy recipe to whip up and tastes so much better than any box mix!
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Make a hole in the middle of the dry ingredients. Whisk together the wet ingredients: buttermilk, eggs and vanilla extract.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and whisk it a few times.
Next, add the melted butter and whisk it all until it is just fully combined being careful not to over mix. Lumpy batter is good batter!
Now, let the batter rest for 5 minutes while you preheat an electric griddle to 350°F. If you don't have a griddle you can use a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat with a tablespoon of butter or oil.
Using a ladle or ½ cup measuring cup pour the pancake batter onto preheated griddle. I make them around 4 inches in diameter.
Cook pancakes on first side for 1-2 minutes until tops start to bubble and pop and bottom is golden brown.
Flip pancakes and cook another 1-2 until golden brown and spring back when touched.
Place pancakes aside until all the batter is cooked. You can place in low oven to keep warm while you finish all the batter.
