Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

Batter:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

  • 1 cup buttermilk

  • 1 egg

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping:

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 5 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 1 (7 ounce) can whipped cream (Optional)

Directions

  1. Combine flour, brown sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, cream of tartar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl with a whisk.

  2. Combine buttermilk, egg, butter, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Beat to break up the egg. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until batter is foamy and just combined.

  3. Whisk white sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon together in a small bowl.

  4. Heat a large non-stick griddle over medium-low heat. Pour 1/3 cup batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

  5. Brush pancakes with the 5 tablespoons butter. Sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Top with whipped cream.

Cook's Notes:

You can also make the buttermilk mixture in a liquid measuring cup.

You can use up to 1/2 cup batter for each pancake.
