Buttermilk Pancakes are the ultimate breakfast comfort—light, airy, and perfectly golden with a subtle tang from the buttermilk. These pancakes are soft on the inside with slightly crisp edges, making them ideal for soaking up maple syrup, melted butter, or fresh berries. Whether stacked high for a weekend brunch or made quick on a weekday morning, they’re a timeless classic that never goes out of style.
Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 4 cups buttermilk
Instructions
Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and baking powder. In another bowl, whisk the eggs and buttermilk until blended; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
- Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle; turn when bubbles form on top. Cook until second side is golden brown.
- Freeze option: Freeze cooled pancakes between layers of waxed paper in a freezer container. To use, place pancakes on an ungreased baking sheet, cover with foil and reheat in a preheated 375° oven 6-10 minutes. Or place a stack of 3 pancakes on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high until heated through, 45-90 seconds.
