- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 4 Tablespoons melted butter, plus more for the pan
In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
Add the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter and stir just to combine. Be careful not to overmix the batter - stir just until the streaks of flour are gone. It's totally normal to have a lumpy pancake batter.
To make your pancakes, heat a griddle or large frying pan over medium heat. You may need to adjust the temperature a bit so the pancakes don't cook too fast on the bottom. Add a pat of butter to the pan and let it melt, then scoop about ⅓ cup of batter and drop it into the pan to form a pancake. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Watch your pancakes and when you start to see little bubbles appearing on the top of each pancake, give them a flip with a large spatula and cook the other side until golden brown. Serve immediately.
