1. Classic Buttermilk Pancakes
Besides this classic, there are also a few recipes included here that are a little more unusual. Who knows, your family might just find a new favorite!
Ingredients
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs
Directions
1. Heat the oven to 200¡F.
2. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave or in a small saucepan on the stove and set aside to cool briefly.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs.
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Whisk gently until the dry ingredients are almost incorporated; stop before the batter is evenly moistened.
6. Add the cooled melted butter and mix just until the batter is evenly moistened (there will be lumps). Let the batter rest while you heat the griddle.
7. Heat a griddle or a large skillet over medium heat (or set an electric griddle to 375¡F) until drops of water briefly dance on the surface before evaporating.
8. Lightly oil the griddle. Working in batches, pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the griddle for each pancake, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Let cook undisturbed until bubbles rise to the surface and the edges look dry, 1 to 2 minutes.
9. Check the underside of each pancake to make sure itÕs nicely browned; then flip.
10. Cook until the second side is nicely browned, about 1 minute more. Transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you repeat with the remaining batter.
Variation: Lemon-Blueberry Pancakes
1. Zest a lemon and then squeeze the lemon juice into a 2 cup measure.
2. Add enough regular milk (not buttermilk!) to make 2 cups. Stir, let stand 5 minutes and stir again before substituting it for the buttermilk in the recipe.
3. Add the lemon zest to the dry ingredients.
4. Immediately after pouring the batter on the grill, sprinkle each pancake with fresh or frozen (thawed & drained) blueberries.
Yield: About 17 pancakes, although the recipe can be easily halved or doubled.
