Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for homemade pancakes along with estimated nutrition information:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk mixed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar, let sit for 5 minutes)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract if using.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. It’s okay if there are some lumps; overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1-2 minutes more.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
