Grandpa Terry's Buttermilk Pancakes
Grandpa Terry (my cousin's grandfather) made these for my husband and I when we stayed at their lake house the week leading up to my cousin's wedding and they quickly became my favorite pancakes! The buttermilk adds this tangy flavor that makes them taste a little like sourdough! Plus they're fluffy & so easy to make!
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour, *remove 2 Tbsp + 1tsp of this flour so we can make it self-rising
- 2 cups oat flour, *can also be subbed for all purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp baking powder, *to make the flour self-rising
- 1 tsp salt, *to make the flour self-rising
- 4 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 Tbsp canola oil
- 2 eggs
- nonstick cooking spray
Toppings (optional)
- blueberries
- chocolate chips
- bananas
- strawberries
Instructions
- If using a griddle preheat to 275F. If not, skip this step.
- Sift flours, baking powder and salt into a big bowl. *note remember to only add baking powder and salt if you are not using self-rising flour!
- In a separate bowl, mix 1/4 cup of buttermilk, eggs and canola oil together.
- Add 4 cups of buttermilk to the flour, use a whisk to stir it gently into the flour.
- Pour in your egg mixture to the flour & continue whisking. Be sure not to over-whisk, we are trying to avoid whipping air into the pancake batter. *If the mixture looks too thick, add a lil more buttermilk.
- Once your griddle is hot, spray nonstick spray on it and take spoonfuls of batter and pour it onto the griddle (if you want, add your desired toppings now or wait to top once cooked). *Make sure to add nonstick spray to your skillet in between every pancake so that they don't stick to the pan*
