Ingredients
Ingredients
all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups (sifted)
granulated sugar
1/4 cup (none)
baking powder
1 tablespoon (heaping)
baking soda
1 teaspoon (none)
large egg
1 (beaten)
vegetable oil
1/4 cup (none)
buttermilk
1 1/4 cups (or as needed)
Instructions
1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined.
2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add in the oil and buttermilk. Mix until smooth.
3
Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Take care not to overmix — a few small lumps in the batter are key to fluffy pancakes.
4
Preheat your skillet or griddle to 380°F (193°C). To check if it's ready, flick a few droplets of water onto the surface; if they bounce, the pan is hot enough.
5
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set, about 2-3 minutes.
6
Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until they are golden brown on both sides and spring back when touched.
7
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
