Easy Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes From Scratch

These buttermilk pancakes are fluffy, buttery, and have the most tender texture in the middle. Buttermilk adds a lovely tangy flavor to the pancakes. If you do not have access to buttermilk, don’t worry, we have provided a note below sharing how to make buttermilk at home (all you need is dairy or non-dairy milk and acid like white vinegar or lemon juice). Buttermilk tends to vary in how thick it is so we provide a recommended range of how much buttermilk to add to the batter. You might find that you need all or more buttermilk to achieve the right batter consistency. A visual cue is shared in the recipe below so you can get it just right.

Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for skillet
- 1 1/2 cups (195 grams) all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea or table salt
- 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups (295 ml to 354 ml) buttermilk, see notes for substitute
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional

- Melt three tablespoons of butter, and then set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and the salt together until well blended.
- In a medium bowl, whisk 1 1/4 cups of the buttermilk and eggs together.
- Make a well in the middle of the flour mixture, and then pour in the buttermilk and egg mixture. Stir a few times, and then add the melted butter. Use a whisk or fork to stir until you no longer see clumps of flour. It is okay if the batter has small lumps – it is important not to over-mix the batter.
- When you lift the whisk or fork out from the batter, it should slowly run down back into the bowl. If this does not happen and the batter is too thick, add additional buttermilk.
- Heat a large skillet (or use griddle) over medium heat. The pan is ready if when you splatter a little water onto the pan surface, the water dances around the pan and eventually evaporates.
- Lightly brush the skillet with melted butter. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to spoon batter onto skillet. Gently spread the batter into a 5-inch circle.
- When the edges look dry, and bubbles start to appear and pop on the top surfaces of the pancake, turn over. This takes 1 to 2 minutes. Once flipped, cook another 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked in the middle. Serve immediately with warm syrup, butter, and berries.
- For larger batches of pancakes, before cooking the pancakes, heat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and place a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat inside. As the pancakes cook, carefully place them onto the baking sheet in the oven to keep warm.
- Buttermilk pancakes freeze well. Place the cooked pancakes onto a parchment lined baking sheet and slide into the freezer. Freeze until frozen, about 1 hour. When the pancakes are frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven or toaster.

- If using a cast iron griddle to cook pancakes preheat it over a gas stove to about medium heat (larger burner medium, smaller burner medium-high, adjust as needed when cooking pancakes).
- If using an electric griddle to cook pancakes preheat it to 375 degrees.
- If using non-stick skillets you'll want to have at least two. Skillets will only need to preheat for a minute or two, so wait to warm them until batter is almost ready.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt for 20 seconds, create a well in center of mixture. Set aside.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs. Pour in buttermilk and and melted butter and whisk to blend (butter may separate and that's fine).
- Pour buttermilk mixture into flour mixture and whisk just until combined (batter should be rather lumpy. Don't over-mix or pancakes won't be fluffy).
- Grease griddle with oil or butter right before adding batter (if using cast iron use vegetable oil) and ladle about a slightly heaping 1/3 cup batter at a time into griddle.
- Allow to cook until golden on bottom, then flip and cook opposite side until golden. Serve warm with maple syrup.

- 2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (300 grams)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50 grams)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

How to cook:
- In a large bowl add the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg; whisk well to combine.
- In a separate bowl add the eggs and lightly beat them with a whisk. Add in the buttermilk and vanilla and beat until well combined. Stir the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring just until everything is combined.
- Pour batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto a buttered hot pan or griddle, adding only a few at a time so that they do not blend together.
- Cook for about 2 minutes before flipping them over, or until small bubbles form on top. Cook on the second side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Repeat with all pancake batter.
- Serve pancakes warm, with syrup. See notes for freezing options.
