Classic Buttermilk Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/4 cup buttermilk
• 1 egg (large)
• 3 tablespoon butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1

   Whisk the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.

3. 3

   Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined — a few lumps are fine. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.

4. 4

   Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Ladle about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form across the surface and the edges look set, 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes.

5. 5

   Serve warm with butter and maple syrup.
