Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1.25 cups buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Griddle

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter.
  3. Pour the wet into the dry and stir just until combined - lumps are fine. Let rest 5 minutes.
  4. Pour 1/4-cup portions onto a buttered griddle over medium heat.
  5. Cook until bubbles form and the edges set, then flip and cook until golden. Serve with butter and syrup.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter - lumps are fine and make fluffier pancakes. Let the batter rest 5 minutes before cooking.
