These pancakes were made for slow mornings and warm smiles. The gentle hint of cinnamon, the richness of vanilla, and the tang of buttermilk create a stack that’s tender, flavorful, and comforting. Whether it’s a weekend treat or breakfast-for-dinner, these pancakes are a sweet, simple joy.
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for the pan)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
Make the Batter: Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir gently until just combined—lumps are okay. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Cook the Pancakes: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little butter. Pour ¼ cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top, then flip and cook until golden brown.
Serve Warm: Stack high and enjoy with syrup, fruit, or a pat of butter.
These pancakes turn any morning into a treat—soft, spiced, and irresistibly fluffy!
