How to Make Martha Stewart Buttermilk Pancakes

  1. Heat your griddle to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 2 cups buttermilk, and 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. The batter should have some lumps; do not overmix.
  5. Preheat oven to 175°F (80°C).
  6. Test the griddle's temperature by sprinkling a few drops of water onto its surface. If the water bounces and sizzles, it's ready.
  7. Lightly grease the griddle with 1/2 teaspoon of unsalted butter or reserved bacon fat (if using bacon, reserve 1/2 teaspoon of bacon drippings before cooking).
  8. Using a 1/2 cup ladle, pour pancake batter onto the hot griddle, leaving about 2 inches between each pancake.
  9. Cook for 2-2 1/2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look slightly dry.
  10. Keep cooked pancakes warm in the preheated oven while you cook the remaining batter.
  11. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as raspberry syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
