Scott's Famous Buttermillk Pancakes

I am not the breakfast cooker in this family, but thought I'd share Scott's yummy pancake recipe.

-2 cups all-purpose flour
-2 t baking powder
-1 t baking soda
-1/2 t salt
-3 T sugar
-2 large eggs, lightly beaten
-3 cups buttermilk
-4 T unsalted butter, melted plus 1/2 t for the griddle

Heat griddle to 375 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a medium bowl. Add eggs, buttermilk, and 4 T butter, whisk to combine. Batter should have small to medium lumps.

Test griddle by sprinkling a few drops of water on it. If water bounces and spatters off griddle, it is hot enough. Brush griddle with butter or some bacon grease. Wipe off excess.

Using about 1/2 cup of batter, pour pancake batter onto griddle about 2 inches apart from one another. When pancakes have bubbled on top and are slightly dry around the edges (about 2 1/2 minutes) flip over. Cook until golden on bottom, about 1 minute.

Enjoy!
