Flat Top Buttermilk Pancakes

Steps

• 1

  In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda until combined.

  Ingredients

  • 2 Cup all-purpose flour

  • 3 Tablespoon sugar

  • 3/4 Teaspoon Kosher salt

  • 1 Teaspoon baking powder

  • 1 Teaspoon baking soda

• 2

  Melt the 4 Tbsp of butter. In a medium bowl or large liquid measuring cup, whisk the melted butter with the buttermilk and egg yolks (not the whites) until well-combined.

  Ingredients

  • 2 Ounce (4 Tbsp) unsalted butter, plus more for cooking and serving

  • 2 Cup buttermilk

  • 2 Large eggs, whites and yolks separated

• 3

  Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Add the egg whites and, using a flexible spatula, fold just until you can no longer see the whites, making sure not to overmix.

  Preheat 2 adjacent zones of the flat top to medium heat for 5 minutes. Put about 2 tablespoons butter on the hot cooktop then use a spatula to spread the butter in a thin layer. Using a ⅓-cup measure (or a similar size scooper), drop 6 portions of the batter onto the cooktop leaving room around each. Cook until bubbles start to appear on the edges, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about another 2 minutes.

  Transfer the pancakes to a serving platter and keep warm. Repeat with another 2 tablespoons butter and batter to make 6 more pancakes.

  Serve the pancakes hot with maple syrup and more butter, if you like. Enjoy!
