Source of Recipe

From "Deep South Dish" by Mary Foreman


Recipe Introduction

"My personal recipe for more than 30 years, these make simply perfect homemade buttermilk pancakes that I know you'll love."

List of Ingredients

◦  2 cups all-purpose flour
◦  2 teaspoons baking powder
◦  2 teaspoons baking soda
◦  3 tablespoons sugar
◦  1 teaspoon kosher salt
◦  2 cups buttermilk, more or less, divided
◦  2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled, plus more for skillet
◦  2 large eggs
◦  1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Recipe

Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt; set aside.

Combine 1 cup buttermilk with 2 tablespoons melted butter, and eggs. Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture. Gently combine, adding vanilla extract and additional buttermilk as needed. Batter should be fairly thick and lumpy, but pourable; avoid overmixing.

Heat griddle or skillet over medium-high heat; add additional butter, as needed. Spoon â…“ cup measure of batter onto pan, leaving at least ½ inch between each. When pancakes begin to bubble up and edges appear dry, turn over to brown other side. Repeat with remaining butter and batter. Serve immediately with additional butter, warmed syrup, a side of sausage, and fruit.
