Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Buttermilk (or substitute)
- 1 Large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Melted Unsalted Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk (or substitute), egg, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour wet into dry. Gently fold with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are fine for tenderness.
- For peak fluffiness, let batter rest at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low. Lightly grease, wiping off excess.
- Using a small cookie scoop (approx. 1 tbsp), drop 1.5-2 inch portions onto the skillet. Leave space between each.
- Cook 1-2 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface and edges look set. Time to flip!
- Gently flip each mini pancake. Cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through, feeling springy.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate. Keep warm in a low oven (200°F/90°C) while cooking remaining batter. Serve warm with toppings for true breakfast joy!
