One Bowl Buttermilk Pancakes with Buttermilk Syrup

How to make One Bowl Buttermilk Pancakes with Buttermilk Syrup Recipe - This buttermilk syrup all began when my brother-in-law introduced me to his version. I was a fan for life. My boys refer to it as the “candy syrup.” The kids get a kick out of helping make the syrup because when it’s time to add the baking soda and vanilla, the whole saucepan foams up like a fun science experiment.

Ingredients:
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1⁄2 cup plus 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
11⁄2 cups buttermilk, divided
11⁄2 teaspoons baking soda, divided
1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 tablespoon canola oil
1⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt

Method:
1. To make the syrup, place the butter, 1⁄2 cup of the sugar, and 1⁄2 cup of the buttermilk into a medium saucepan over medium heat and stir until melted. Once the syrup starts to boil, add 1⁄2 teaspoon of the baking soda and the vanilla, stirring to combine. When the syrup starts to foam, stir, remove from the heat, transfer to a serving dish, and let sit while preparing the pancakes.

2. Lightly spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat.

3. To make the pancakes, add the flour, egg, oil, salt, the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, 1 cup buttermilk, and 1 teaspoon baking soda to a large bowl and stir until well combined. In batches, pour 1⁄4 cup pancake batter into the hot skillet, spreading with a spoon to even out. Cook until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer the warm pancakes to a plate and cover to keep warm. Drizzle the warm syrup over pancakes and serve.
