Nothing starts the morning off better than a stack of warm, homemade buttermilk pancakes. These pancakes are incredibly light and packed with rich flavor, featuring a subtle tang from the buttermilk and just the right amount of sweetness. They are thinner than traditional pancakes but slightly thicker than crepes, making them the perfect balance of fluffy and delicate. Top them with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or maple syrup for a delicious breakfast treat. If you have a griddle, cooking them becomes even easier, ensuring perfect golden-brown pancakes every time.
Ingredients for Fluffy Homemade Buttermilk Pancakes

How to Make Fluffy Homemade Buttermilk Pancakes
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well until smooth.
- Heat a skillet or griddle and lightly coat with oil.
- Once heated, pour a small amount of batter, forming a 2-inch (5 cm) circle (pancakes will be thin, similar to crepes).
- When the edges begin to look cooked, flip the pancake carefully.
- Cook until golden brown on the other side. Add more oil as needed between batches.
- Repeat the process until all batter is used. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
- Note: Leftover pancakes freeze well. Place a sheet of wax paper between each pancake before freezing for easy reheating.
