Buttermilk Pancakes

Finally! I was beginning to think I'd never get around to posting on our blog and getting this started, but I made our favorite pancakes this morning and thought of the blog. So here you go! I got the recipe from America's Test Kitchen. You can sprinkle blueberries on them after you've poured the batter on the skillet but we usually have them just like this. Now take into consideration that this blog is for the RECIPES and not necessarily great pictures. =)

Buttermilk Pancakes

1 Tbsp. Lemon juice

2 c. milk

Mix and set aside or use 2 c. buttermilk if you have some handy.

2 c. unbleached all-purpose flour

2 Tbsp. sugar

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1 large egg

3Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

1. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl to combine.

2. Whisk egg and melted butter into milk until combined. Make a well in center of dry ingredients in bowl; pour in milk mixture and whisk very gently until just combined (a few lumps should remain). Do not overmix.

3. Heat nonstick skillet over medium heat for 3-5 min. Brush with oil (or butter). Pour 1/4 c. batter on skillet (and sprinkle with blueberries, if desired). Cook pancakes until large bubbles begin to appear, 1 1/2-2 min. Flip pancakes and cook until golden brown on second side, 1-1 1/2 min. longer. Serve immediately.
