Light and fluffy buttermilk pancakes by Kelly posted by Aamena

Light and Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes

 

Yield: 4 servings

Prep Time: 10 min

Cook Time: 5 min

 

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 Tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 large egg
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

 

Directions:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg and melted butter. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until combined. (There should be lumps in the batter.)

Place a nonstick pan or griddle over medium-low heat. Grease it with oil. Drop dollops of the batter onto the hot pan. Once bubbles form, flip the pancakes once and continue cooking 1 to 2 more minutes until the pancakes are cooked throughout. Serve immediately with maple syrup or other toppings.

 

Kelly's Notes:
Do not overmix the batter or the pancakes will be dense and flat rather than light and fluffy.

*marinate steak with above. Use a flat pot, add butter and oil and cook on low till tender. (Test with a knife to see if its done) don't overcook. Mines cooked for 15min.
