Buttermilk Pancakes

Fluffy, light, and perfect for weekend brunch

Martha Stewart’s Buttermilk Pancakes are the gold standard for breakfast or brunch. These are light, gently crumbly pancakes with subtle tang from the buttermilk, and the great ease in preparation makes them a family favorite.

Ingredients:

  1. 2 cups all-purpose flour
  2. 2 tablespoons sugar
  3. 2 teaspoons baking powder
  4. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  5. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  6. 2 cups buttermilk
  7. 2 large eggs
  8. 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  9. Maple syrup and fresh berries, for serving

Instructions:

  1. In a big bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a different bowl, whisk buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter. Slowly pour into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined; do not overmix (this may have a few lumps in there).
  3. IN a nonstick pan or griddle melt butter or oil over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter in for each pancake, and let form bubbles on top-about 2-3 min; flip over and cook other side golden brown.
  4. Serve warm pancakes with maple syrup and fresh berries.
  5. These buttermilk pancakes are fluffy and ever so slightly tangy, making them the perfect lazy Sunday lunch. You can serve it with fruit or whipped cream and even a dusting of powdered sugar.
