These fluffy buttermilk pancakes are a delightful breakfast treat, perfect for starting your day with a smile.
Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
Sifting the dry ingredients ensures a smooth batter and prevents lumps.
Whisk the wet ingredients together in a separate bowl.
Make sure the melted butter is slightly cooled to avoid cooking the egg.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Do not overmix; a few lumps in the batter are okay.
Heat a griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.
Test the griddle's heat by sprinkling a few drops of water; they should sizzle and evaporate.
Pour batter onto the griddle to form pancakes of your desired size.
Use a ladle or measuring cup for consistent pancake sizes.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
Wait until the edges look set and bubbles pop before flipping.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings.
Keep pancakes warm in a low oven if making a large batch.
