Craving rich, fluffy pancakes with more flavor than regular ones? This recipe is for you!
When I was a preteen, my mom taught me how to make buttermilk pancakes. She explained to me the magic that happens when buttermilk mixes with baking soda. The acid in buttermilk reacts with it to form tiny bubbles that cause the batter to expand, leading to fluffier pancakes. They also naturally taste more buttery than plain pancakes, and this is why I quickly fell in love with them after first learning how to craft them.
With a subtly tangy flavor and a pillowy soft texture, buttermilk pancakes are sure to become a staple in any household—especially if your family enjoys a sweet and sticky brunch. Bedazzle your stack of pancakes with maple syrup, fresh fruit, and any other of your favorite toppings, and you have a decadent breakfast that can satisfy everyone. I like to pair these sweet and tangy buttermilk pancakes with a savory side like turkey sausage or High-Protein Scrambled Eggs With Cottage Cheese, but the way you serve it is up to you. This brilliant brunch treat gives you and your loved ones the opportunity to get creative in the kitchen, while learning a bit about culinary chemistry. Have fun!
What if I don’t have buttermilk?
No buttermilk? No problem! For every one cup of buttermilk in this recipe, replace it with one cup of regular milk mixed with one tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice. Let this mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to thicken, and then use it to make pancakes that have a similarly tangy taste and fluffy texture.
How do I store leftovers?
Let your buttermilk pancakes cool to room temperature, and then transfer them to an airtight container. Refrigerate for 2-3 days, or use a freezer-safe container and freeze them for up to 6 months, with parchment paper between each piece to prevent sticking. Let them thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating them on the stove or in a toaster oven for about 5 minutes, until they’re completely warm.
