Buttermilk Pancakes



My boys are pancake connoisseurs.  "Stevie's" are the bar to which all others are compared. How could I resist a recipe hailed as the 'best pancake ever' according to Southern Living magazine? After all, buttermilk was on hand after baking the German Chocolate Cake. 

One bite in, they both agreed - these are good, really good.  Better than Stevie's?  They wouldn't go that far....just different. 

Your weekend needs these, you will thank me later. 


BUTTERMILK PANCAKES

Recipe courtesy of Southern Living

1 3/4 cup flour

2 tsp sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp table salt

2 cups buttermilk

2 large eggs

1/4 cup butter, melted

Stir together flour and next 4 ingredients in large bowl.  Whisk together buttermilk and eggs; gradually stir into flour mixture.  Gently stir in butter.  (Batter will be lumpy).  Let stand 5 minutes. Pour about 1/4 cup batter for each pancake onto a hot (350°) buttered griddle.  Cook pancakes 3 to 4 minutes or until tops are covered with bubbles and edges look dry and cooked.  Turn and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until brown.  Place pancakes in single layer on baking sheet and keep warm in 200° oven up to 30 minutes.
