Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes from Scratch (Better Than a Mix)


If you've ever reached for a boxed pancake mix out of habit, this recipe is here to change your mind. Buttermilk pancakes made from scratch are tangy, tender, and impossibly fluffy—and they take barely more effort than shaking a box. The secret is real buttermilk, which reacts with baking soda to create the airiest texture. Once you make these, you'll wonder why you ever settled for anything else. Let's get the griddle hot.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted, plus more for the pan

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
  4. Heat a buttered griddle or skillet over medium heat until a water droplet sizzles.
  5. Ladle ⅓ cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle.
  6. Cook until bubbles pop across the surface and edges set, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook 2 minutes more.
  7. Serve immediately with butter and warm maple syrup.

Chef's Notes & Tips

  • No buttermilk? No problem: Stir 2 tablespoons of lemon juice or vinegar into 2 cups of milk and let it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Rest is best: The 10-minute rest lets the buttermilk and leaveners do their work for maximum fluff.
  • Gentle flip: Use a thin, flexible spatula and flip once—repeated flipping deflates the pancakes.
  • Thick batter: If the batter seems too thin, add a tablespoon of flour; too thick, splash in a little milk.

There's real satisfaction in making pancakes from scratch, and these buttermilk beauties deliver every single time. Try them once and I promise the boxed mix will gather dust in your pantry. Share your golden stack with family or friends and let me know how it turned out—happy flipping!
