American Buttermilk Pancakes with Cinnamon

Step 1

Place all the dry ingredients into a large bowl and stir to combine.

Step 2

In a measuring jug, add the buttermilk, milk, vanilla extract and egg. Whisk together until well combined.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients a little at a time. Whisk continually until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.

Step 4

Add the melted butter to the batter and whisk to smooth.

Step 5

Allow the batter to sit for 10 minutes (or longer if time allows) while you heat up a frying pan.

Step 6

Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium/high heat and add a drop of oil to grease the pan.

Step 7

If using a small pan make one pancake at a one at a time. If using a large pan or griddle add what the surface can easily cook, taking care not to overcrowd the pan to allow space for easily flipping the pancakes.

Step 8

Add the batter to the hot pan a ladle or scoop at a time. One ladle will be enough for one pancake.

Step 9

Once air bubbles are visible on top of the pancake, approximately 2 minutes, flip the pancake over. Allow the pancake to cook for a further minute then remove and rest on a warm plate covered with a tea towel.

Step 10

Continue this process until all the pancake batter has been used up.

Step 11

Serve warm with toppings of your choice.
