Instructions

  1. Whisk the dry ingredients with a pinch of salt.

  2. In another bowl, whisk buttermilk, egg and melted butter.

  1. Fold wet into dry until just combined — lumps are good. Rest 10 minutes.

  2. Cook on a buttered medium pan until bubbles form, then flip and cook 1 minute more.

💡 Tips

Do not overmix — a lumpy batter makes fluffy pancakes. Resting lets the gluten relax and the leavening activate.

📝 Notes

Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 90°C oven while you finish the batch.
