Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk with 1 tablespoon vinegar if buttermilk is unavailable)

1 large egg

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Additional butter or oil for cooking

Optional toppings: maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh berries, or chopped nuts

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined. Make a well in the center of the dry mixture.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

      Combine the Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients. Gently mix until just combined – it's okay if there are a few lumps; over-mixing can lead to tough pancakes.

        Preheat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.

          Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set.

            Flip the Pancakes: Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.

              Keep Warm: Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while you repeat the process with the remaining batter.

                Serve: Stack the pancakes high on a plate and top with your favorite accompaniments – a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, or a sprinkle of fresh berries and nuts.

                  Enjoy the fluffy, flavorful delight of your Vanilla Cinnamon Buttermilk Pancakes!
