Ingredients

• 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
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until small bubbles form on the surface, about 2 minutes.
6. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
7. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
8. Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup, fresh berries, or your favorite toppings.
