Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat a griddle to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda until well combined. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Add the buttermilk, vegetable oil, and eggs to the dry ingredients. Gently mix by hand with a spoon until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; avoid overmixing to ensure light and airy pancakes. If the batter appears too thick, add a splash more buttermilk until desired consistency is achieved. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Working in batches, spoon batter onto the preheated griddle. (1 minute)

05

Step

Cook until bubbles begin to form and pop on the surface of the pancakes, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. (4 minutes)

06

Step

Flip the pancakes and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 2 minutes more. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.

For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
Adjust the amount of buttermilk to achieve your desired batter consistency. It should be pourable but slightly thick.

    The batter was a little too thick at first, but adding a bit more buttermilk fixed it perfectly.
