2 c. flour 2 c. buttermilk
2 tbsp. sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract
4 tsp. baking powder 2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp. baking soda Maple syrup, for serving
1 tsp. fine sea salt
12 tbsp. (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, divided, plus more

Steps:

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Melt 4 tablespoons ( 1/2 stick) butter. In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla extract and eggs. Whisk buttermilk mixture into flour mixture, mixing as little as possible to make a thick (and lumpy) batter. Do not overmix; too much stirring will result in tough pancakes. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and heat until butter's foam subsides. Ladle in about 1/2 cup of batter and cook, turning once, until pancake is deep golden brown on both sides, about 4 to 5 minutes total. Repeat process with additional butter and remaining batter. Serve hot, topped with butter and maple syrup.
