Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 large egg, slightly beaten
  • 1-1/2 cups buttermilk *see notes
  • 3 tablespoons Canola cooking oil

optional toppings

  • confectioner's sugar, for sprinkling, amount to taste
  • honey, amount to taste
  • maple syrup, amount to taste
  • cut fruit, amount to taste

Instructions

    1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, stir together egg, buttermilk, and oil. Add egg mixture to dry mixed ingredients. Stir until just combined. It's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy. Add desired fruit in the batter or on top later.
    2. Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop the batter onto a heated, lightly greased, non-stick, large skillet, cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, on each side or until desired browning is achieved. Serve warm with a dollop of Greek yogurt and desired syrup. Optionally, sprinkle with some powdered/confectioner's sugar.Buttermilk Pancakes Recipe

Notes

    • How to Make a Buttermilk Substitute with Milk and Lemon Juice or Vinegar: You can make it using regular milk and add 1 tablespoon of either lemon juice or white vinegar per 1 cup of milk and let stand for 5 minutes.
    • How to Make a Buttermilk Substitute with Water and Lemon Juice or Vinegar: For this recipe, it will still work, if you use the same amount of water and 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white or apple cider vinegar and mix together. This option is also great if you want to eliminate dairy from this recipe.
