Cook this recipe

  • all-purpose flour-2 cups
  • cultured buttermilk-2 cups
  • unsalted butter-5 tablespoons
  • granulated sugar-2 tablespoons
  • baking powder-2 teaspoons
  • baking soda-1 teaspoon
  • large eggs-2 count
  • fine salt-0.5 teaspoons
1
Whisk the dry ingredients
Mixing Bowl
Whisk

In the large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

2 Cup flour
2 Tablespoon sugar
2 Teaspoon baking powder
1 Teaspoon baking soda
1/2 Teaspoon salt
2
Whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and butter
Mixing Bowl
Whisk

In the medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk and eggs until smooth. Whisk in 4 tablespoons melted butter.

2 Cup buttermilk
2 Count egg
5 Tablespoon butter
3
Fold and rest the batter
Mixing Bowl

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Fold gently just until no dry streaks remain; a few small lumps are desirable. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.

Do not taste the uncooked batter because it contains raw flour and eggs.

4
Heat and butter the skillet
Skillet

Heat the skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Lightly coat the cooking surface with some of the reserved butter.

Keep hands and utensil handles away from the hot skillet, and turn the handle inward to prevent accidental bumps.

Wipe up melted butter promptly to prevent slippery surfaces.

5 Tablespoon butter
5
Scoop and cook the pancakes
Skillet
Measuring cup

Scoop 1/4 cup batter per pancake into the skillet, leaving space between them. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles rise and pop on top and the edges begin to look set.

Keep hands and utensil handles away from the hot skillet, and turn the handle inward to prevent accidental bumps.

6
Flip and cook until golden
Spatula
Skillet

Flip each pancake once and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the second side is golden brown and the center is cooked through.

Keep hands and utensil handles away from the hot skillet, and turn the handle inward to prevent accidental bumps.

7
Finish the batches and serve warm
Spatula
Skillet

Transfer the pancakes to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, dividing the remaining reserved butter among the batches and lightly greasing the skillet only as needed. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent overbrowning, then serve warm.

Keep hands and utensil handles away from the hot skillet, and turn the handle inward to prevent accidental bumps.
