How to Make the Fluffiest Buttermilk Pancakes
The great thing about using buttermilk for pancakes is that it provides a lot more flavor than regular milk.
The buttermilk also works in tandem with the baking soda to help create light airy pancakes.
Buttermilk gives the pancakes a richer flavor
What makes these pancakes so light and fluffy is using both baking powder and baking soda. It also helps if you give them a whisk, right before pouring the batter onto the griddle.
What makes this pancake recipe so tasty is adding cinnamon and a touch of salt to the batter – making the pancakes amazingly flavorful.
A touch of cinnamon makes the pancakes taste amazing
A tip to help tell when the pancakes should be flipped is to watch for bubbles to start forming in the batter.

Ingredients
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 1-3/4 cups flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2-1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp butter, unsalted and melted
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and the eggs.
- Stir the wet ingredients into a large bowl with the dry ingredients, adding in the melted butter. Mix everything until it is just combined, don't worry if there are a few small lumps leftover. Let the batter sit while the griddle warms up.
- Cook the pancakes on a 350℉ griddle, using a 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook the pancakes by pouring the batter onto the griddle, flipping the pancakes after 3 minutes or so of cooking. The pancakes are done when they are a nice golden brown and have cooked all the way through.
- Serve with butter and warm maple syrup.
