Step 1

Preheat a griddle to 325°F, or a skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the microwave and set aside to cool for 3 minutes.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Then add in the buttermilk and butter and stir just until combined. Then mix in the eggs and vanilla, just until most the lumps are gone and the batter is smooth. If the batter is too thick, add another splash of milk. If it's too thin add another Tablespoon of flour.

Step 3

Coat the griddle (or skillet) with butter and then pour 1/4 cup batter onto the heated griddle. Cook the pancakes until bubbles appear, about 2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the other side for 1 minute, or just until lightly browned.

Step 4

Serve immediately or place on a baking sheet in the oven at 175°F to keep warm.
