Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.33 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2.5 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2.25 tsp baking powder
  • 0.25 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp fine salt
  • 1.2 cup buttermilk shake well
  • 1 large egg room temperature if possible
  • 1.25 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2.75 tbsp unsalted butter, melted let it cool slightly
  • 0.3 cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies) avoid nonpareils to prevent color bleed
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil for greasing the pan

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Warm a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with oil.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk buttermilk, egg, and vanilla. Slowly whisk in the melted butter.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until a few streaks of flour remain.
  • Fold in the sprinkles gently to keep colors from bleeding.
  • Scoop about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook until edges set and bubbles form, 2–3 minutes.
  • Flip and cook until golden and cooked through, 1–2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
  • Serve warm with maple syrup and extra sprinkles if you like.

Notes

Try lemon-vanilla: add 1 tsp lemon zest to the batter and finish with a squeeze of lemon over the stack. No buttermilk? Use 1 cup milk plus 2 tbsp plain yogurt. Leftovers freeze well—cool completely, then freeze in a single layer and reheat in a toaster.
