Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml / 8 fl oz) buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsps (30 ml / 1 fl oz) butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsps (25 g) granulated sugar
- 1 tsp (5 g) baking powder
- ½ tsp (2.5 g) baking soda
- ½ tsp (3 g) salt
Instructions
- Preparation: Assemble cooking apparatus including griddle or skillet, whisking bowl, and measuring implements. Preheat cooking surface to medium warmth for consistent heat distribution.
- Dry Mixture: Thoroughly blend flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl, ensuring a homogeneous powder foundation for the pancakes.
- Batter Formation: Excavate a central cavity in the dry ingredients, then introduce buttermilk, egg, and melted butter. Whisk with precision to eliminate lumps, creating a silky, uniform batter with a smooth consistency.
- Cooking Process: Utilize a batter dispenser or spoon to deposit petite, uniform batter portions onto the heated surface. Monitor for bubble formation across the pancake’s surface, which signals the critical moment for careful flipping.
- Finishing Touch: Rotate mini pancakes, cooking the reverse side until a delicate golden-brown hue emerges. This indicates perfect doneness and a crisp, delectable exterior. Transfer immediately to a serving plate, preserving optimal temperature and texture for immediate indulgence.
Notes
- Prep Surface Strategically: Use a well-seasoned non-stick griddle or skillet to prevent sticking and ensure easy pancake release.
- Control Batter Consistency: Aim for a smooth, pourable batter without lumps; overmixing can lead to tough, dense pancakes.
- Master Bubble Timing: Wait for small bubbles to form evenly across the surface before flipping, which typically takes about 2-3 minutes on medium heat.
- Maintain Uniform Size: Use a squeeze bottle, batter dispenser, or consistent spoon measurement to create perfectly sized mini pancakes for even cooking.
