Classic Buttermilk Pancakes

Classic buttermilk pancakes

Here's a popular recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the pan

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
   
   
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, milk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
   
   
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps in the batter.
   
   
4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If using a skillet, lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
   
   
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
   
   
6. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
   
   
7. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
   
   
8. Classic buttermilk pancakes are a favorite breakfast choice for many Americans and can be enjoyed with various additions such as blueberries, chocolate chips, or pecans. Feel free to customize the recipe to your liking!
