Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups buttermilk
2 large eggs

Steps:

Melt the butter in the microwave and set aside to cool a bit.
In a large bowl whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk and eggs.
Slowly whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until flour evenly moist.
Add the cooled melted butter and mix just to incorporate - do not overmix.
Let batter rest for 15 minutes.
Heat griddle to medium high heat until a drop of water dances on the surface before evaporating. Add 2 tsp butter, let melt and then spoon the batter in quarter cupfuls.
Cook until pancakes are golden brown on the bottom and bubbles form but do not burst on top, about two minutes.
Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown and the surface feels spongy when lightly pressed, 1 - 2 minutes.
