Fantastic Buttermilk Pancakes

February 21, 2011

My Fabulous wife found this recipe for Buttermilk Pancakes, and it’s wonderful.  Hers were fancier than mine, since they were made on Valentine’s Day and thus were heart shaped.   But even the regular round version is tasty.

Jack liked them  so much he’s been saying “CAKES!!” all morning.

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 2 Tbs. sugar
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 4 Tbs. (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 to 2 Tbs. vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray

Directions:

Beat the eggs with an electric mixer until frothy. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, buttermilk, melted butter and vanilla. Mix the ingredients until the batter is smooth and no lumps of flour remain.  Be careful not to over

Heat a griddle over medium-high heat until a drops of water bounce across the griddle.  Spray the griddle with cooking spray.

Pour about 1/3c of batter on to the griddle, and let cook for about 2 minutes until the top surface starts to bubble.  Flip and cook for another 2 minutes, or until the top of the pancake springs back when pressed when pressed with the spatula.

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more cooking spray to the griddle as needed. Serve with maple syrup.
Makes about 12 pancakes; serves 4.
