Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, buttermilk, whole milk, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. A few lumps are okay; don't overmix. Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, which can make the pancakes tough.

  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat. You'll know it's hot enough when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.

  • Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip the pancakes when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.
