Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Provides structure for the pancakes.
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar Adds sweetness to the batter.
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder Key for making pancakes rise.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Helps leaven the batter.
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 cups Buttermilk Adds moisture and tang; can be substituted with milk and vinegar.
  • 2 large Eggs Provides protein and binds the ingredients.
  • 1/4 cup Oil Adds moisture and richness to the pancakes.
Mix-ins
  • 1/2 cup Funfetti Sprinkles Adds color and sweetness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and granulated sugar together with a whisk. Slowly whisk in the baking powder and baking soda.
  2. Next, slowly add in the buttermilk while whisking gently. Then add each egg one at a time, whisking after each addition until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Add the oil to the batter and stir until everything is combined.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your griddle or skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
  2. Sprinkle funfetti sprinkles on top of each pancake while the batter is still wet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface.
  3. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serving
  1. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
  2. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for up to 6 months.

Notes

For a heart-healthy option, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. To reduce sugar, consider using a sugar substitute. Leftover pancakes can be reheated in the toaster.
