When you wake up in the morning and you want pancakes, you want some nice and fluffy pancakes, not that artificial store-bought Betty Crocker mix! After lots and lots of failed and successful attempts, I have finally constructed the perfect pancake.
Ingredients:
- Three Tablespoons of completely melted butter
- Two large eggs
- 3 Tablespoons of sugar
- Less than one teaspoon of salt
- 2 ½ Cups of Buttermilk
- 2 Cups of All Purpose flour
- 1 ½ Teaspoons of Baking Powder
- 1 ½ Teaspoons of Baking Soda
- Green food coloring (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the griddle/pan to 300 degrees fahrenheit or medium heat.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, eggs, salt and sugar, then whisk.
- Add the buttermilk to the wet mixture and whisk until homogenous.
- Before adding the dry mixture, you can add a couple drops of green food coloring to celebrate St. Patrick’s day.
- Add your flour FIRST, then add your baking powder and soda and finally mix.
- For cooking, I use the Curious George method,* but you can just cook it until it is cooked on the inside.
- Optionally, before you flip, add any toppings like chocolate chips or sausage bits, but nothing like fruit, you can add that in the end.
I hope you love this recipe! (I really love to use it on Fridays or weekends.)
Notes:
- Click here to watch the Curious George method if you would like.
- The reason why I didn’t use buttermilk first is because the actual butter will clump up and result in a disaster
