Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg ((optional))
  • 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • To keep pancakes warm while you are making the whole batch, heat oven to 200°F and place a large sheet pan inside.
  • In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg (if using).
  • Add the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla and whisk until just combined. Some small lumps remaining are fine. (Do not over stir the mixture. Overmixing makes for a flat pancake. Mix until a few streaks of flour are remaining.) Let batter sit for about 10 minutes.
  • Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. It should be hot before adding the pancakes to the surface. Spray surface with cooking spray or grease with a bit of oil or melted butter. When pan is hot and right before cooking the pancakes, lower the heat to medium and spoon out 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake.
  • Cook each pancake for about 2-3 minutes. If pancakes are browning too quickly, lower the heat. Bubbles will form on the edges of the pancakes and once they look dry, use a thin spatula to gently lift one side and take a look underneath. If the pancake is golden, flip and cook on the other side for about 2 1/2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Remove pancakes and either serve immediately or keep warm in the oven. Spray or grease surface again and continue cooking remaining batter.
  • Serve with butter, warm maple syrup and any other favorite toppings. Enjoy!
