   • In a food processor, combine all the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
   • Pulse the mixture 4-5 times until well blended.

2. Add Wet Ingredients:

   • To the dry mixture, pour in the buttermilk, cracked egg, and melted butter.
   • Process everything until you achieve a smooth batter, which should take about 10 seconds. Be careful not to overprocess; a few pulses should do the trick.

3. Cook the Pancakes:

   • Heat a griddle or a non-stick skillet over medium heat. You’ll know it’s ready when a drop of water sizzles on the surface.
   • Lightly grease the griddle with butter or oil.
   • Pour the batter onto the hot griddle, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake. You can adjust the size based on your preference, aiming for those perfect 4-inch pancakes.
   • Allow the pancakes to cook until bubbles form on the surface. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

4. Flip and Brown:

   • Once you see those bubbles, it’s time to flip! Use a spatula to gently turn the pancakes over.
   • Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, or until the underside is beautifully golden brown.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate, stacking them up as you go.
   • Serve hot with your favorite toppings. Maple syrup, fresh berries, a dollop of whipped cream—let your imagination run wild!

Recipe Notes:

• Buttermilk Substitute: No buttermilk on hand? No problem! You can easily make a substitute by mixing 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it curdles slightly, then use it as you would buttermilk.

• Make Ahead: You can prepare the pancake batter ahead of time! Store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just give it a quick stir before cooking.

• Freezing Pancakes: These pancakes freeze beautifully! Once cooled, stack them with a small square of parchment paper between each one. Place in a freezer bag and store for up to 2 months. To reheat, pop them in the toaster or microwave until warmed through.

• Flavor Variations: Get creative with your pancakes! Add in a handful of blueberries, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts to the batter for extra flavor and texture.

• Serve with Love: Pancakes are always better when shared with loved ones. Whether it’s a lazy Sunday brunch or a quick weekday breakfast, these Best Ever Buttermilk Pancakes are sure to brighten any morning! 🥞💛
