  2. 2

    In a separate bowl whisk buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla.

  3. 3

    Pour wet into dry and fold gently — stop while lumps remain. Rest 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low; melt a little butter.

  5. 5

    Ladle 1/3 cup batter per pancake. Cook 2–3 minutes until bubbles pop and edges set, flip and cook 1–2 minutes more.

  6. 6

    Serve immediately with butter and warm maple syrup.

Cook's tips

  • Don't over-mix. Lumpy batter = tender pancakes.
  • Medium-low heat prevents burnt outsides with raw centers.
