Equipment

Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup whole milk
  • 2 Tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • Optional - 1 cup fruit (diced strawberries, blueberries, mashed ripe banana)

Instructions
 

  • Combine the milk with the vinegar in a small bowl and whisk together. This makes homemade buttermilk. Set it aside for 5 minutes to sour.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix together.
  • Next, whisk together the eggs and butter into the homemade buttermilk.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients mixture and stir batter until combined and no tiny clumps remain. 
  • If adding optional fruit, stir it in now just until combined.
  • Heat an electric skillet to 350 degrees F and coat it with cooking spray or cooking oil. I prefer oil for a crispier finish.
  • Pour 4 equal circles of batter onto the prepared pan and cook pancakes until large air bubbles appear on the surface and the bottom is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Flip them over gently with a spatula and cook until the second side is golden brown. Each side should only take a few minutes. Transfer pancakes to a plate.
  • Add more oil if necessary and repeat to make 4 more pancakes.
  • Serve with your favorite pancake toppings and enjoy!

Notes

  • Add in your favorite fruit and top with butter, syrup, or jam if desired. 
  • Let the melted butter cool slightly so it doesn't pre-cook the eggs when whisking into the milk.
