Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
- Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes, until bubbles form on top and edges start to set.
- Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
