Receta Amazing Buttermilk Pancakes
There's nothing fancy about these pancakes. They do not have any kind of special ingredient in them to make them "amazing." What this recipe is, is a good solid, old fashioned, made from scratch, buttermilk pancake recipe that will deliver the best pancakes you will ever make...period.
For years I have searched for the perfect buttermilk pancake recipe...only to be disappointed and end up reverting back to boxed buttermilk mixes. Since I discovered this recipe and tweaked it to my preferences, I haven't touched a box mix. My family gets very excited when I say I am making pancakes and my husband, who isn't a huge pancake fan, adores them made from this recipe. That speaks volumes!
You will still have to follow all the important techniques for pancake making to achieve great results...so don't forget to make sure you have your griddle/skillet well heated before you start. Here are a few more tips to make sure that you end up with perfect cakes:
I like to use a melted mixture of half butter and half canola oil to cook my pancakes in. You only need a small amount, so I use a silicon brush to coat my skillet before each batter pour.
Again, enough cannot be said about making sure your griddle/skillet is well heated before you begin.
Wait until the batter looks a little dry around the edges and some bubbles begin to form on the top batter before flipping and flip ONLY ONCE! (you will toughen the cake if you flip them more than once!)
You can keep cooked cakes warm in a low oven (170 degrees F) until ready to serve if you are making a large number and cooking in batches.
The star ingredient in this recipe is, of course, buttermilk. I like to use low-fat buttermilk when I make these...but when I double the recipe, I will sometimes use half buttermilk, half low-fat milk, and they still come out delicious. If you want them really decadent, try using full fat buttermilk instead of the low-fat kind!

I don't know about you all, but I am sick and tired of old man winter. This has been the worst winter in these parts for as long as I can remember. I would love to get away someplace warm, even if just for a few days. I know I am not alone...so much of the country has been suffering from the winter blues to the extreme. Everyone think warm thoughts! Maybe we can will old man winter away! lol
