Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for VANILLA CINNAMON BUTTERMILK PANCAKES
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of buttermilk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whisk these together until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, using a spatula to gently fold them together. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes.
  4. Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat (about 350°F). Lightly grease the surface.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the preheated skillet for each pancake. Cook until small bubbles begin to form on the surface and edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until they are golden brown.
  7. Transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a low oven (approximately 200°F) while cooking the rest.
