🥞 Weekend Stack Goals: Buttermilk Pancakes That Feel Like a Hug

Sometimes you just need a fluffy, golden reason to stay in your robe a little longer—and this pancake recipe delivers.

Whether you're cooking for your crew or treating yourself before a busy week, this simple stack is the perfect way to savor a slow morning.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour (or your favorite substitute)
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 cups buttermilk (or 1 1/4 cup whole milk as a sub)
• 2 tbsp butter, melted and cooled (ghee works great too!)
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk (or milk), melted butter, egg, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Don’t overmix—a few lumps are just right.
4. Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes while your pan heats up (medium heat works best).
5. Lightly grease a skillet or griddle and pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top and the edges look set (about 2–3 minutes), then flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.
6. Serve warm with your favorite toppings—maple syrup, fruit, or maybe a dollop of yogurt.
