These School Morning Pancakes are a quick and easy breakfast option that your kids will love. They're fluffy, flavorful, and perfect for busy mornings before heading off to school.
Ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour. 2 tablespoons sugar. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1 cup buttermilk. 1 egg. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Cooking spray or additional butter for the pan.
Instructions: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter. Pour 1/4 cup portions of the pancake batter onto the hot skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm in a low oven or covered with a clean kitchen towel. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or cooking spray to the skillet as needed. Serve the School Morning Pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy your delicious homemade pancakes to start your school day right!
