| American cuisine | Breakfast Cuisine | Vegetarian Cuisine
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose bleached flour
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil for brushing griddle
Instructions
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over low heat while preparing ingredients.
- Mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in medium bowl.
- Microwave buttermilk and milk in a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup until room temperature (20–30 seconds).
- Whisk in egg, butter, and vanilla.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and whisk until just mixed.
- Return batter to measuring cup, stirring in 1–2 teaspoons water if necessary to make a thick but pourable batter.
- Increase heat to medium and generously brush skillet or griddle with oil.
- When oil starts to spider, but before it starts to smoke, ladle in batter about ¼ cup at a time to make pancakes. Work in batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding.
- When pancake bottoms are golden brown and tops start to bubble (2–3 minutes), flip pancakes.
- Cook until pancakes are golden brown on remaining side.
- Repeat, brushing skillet or griddle with oil between batches of pancakes.
- Serve hot.
