Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbsp white sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Substitutions:
- You can substitute whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
- Replace buttermilk with a mixture of regular milk and lemon juice for a dairy-free option.
- Use coconut sugar instead of white sugar for a refined sugar-free version.
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This step ensures all dry ingredients are well incorporated, giving you a smooth batter later on.
Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and egg. Whisk until everything is blended. Then, slowly add the melted butter while continuing to whisk.
Step 3: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gently pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir just until the batter is combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the pancakes dense instead of fluffy.
Step 4: Cook the Pancakes
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease with butter. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the pancake batter and pour it onto the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Remove the pancakes and keep them warm by covering with a towel or placing them in a low oven (175°F). Stack them high and serve with maple syrup, fresh berries, or your favorite toppings!

- Don’t Overmix: For the fluffiest pancakes, mix the batter just until combined. Overmixing causes the pancakes to become tough.
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Let your egg and buttermilk come to room temperature before mixing. This helps create a smooth batter.
- Perfect Flip Timing: Wait until bubbles form and the edges look set before flipping your pancakes. This ensures even cooking.
