Total Time: 45 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 40 mins

Ingredients

• 2 cups flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups buttermilk
• 4 teaspoons melted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 8 tablespoons butter, for cooking

Recipe

• 1 place the first five (dry) ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
• 2 in a second bowl, whisk together the next four (wet) ingredients.
• 3 pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and whisk together just until combined to make a thick batter. (do not overmix to get a more tender flapjack.).
• 4 heat an 8" nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• 5 add 1 tbsp butter and heat until the butter's foam subsides.
• 6 ladle about 1/2 cup of batter into the skillet.
• 7 cook the flapjack until little bubbles form on the top of the surface and the bottom is golden brown. flip and cook until the other side is golden brown (about 5 minutes total cook time for each flapjack).
• 8 transfer to a large platter and keep warm.
• 9 repeat the process with an additional tbsp butter in the pan until 8 flapjacks have been made. to save time, you can have two skillets going at the same time.
• 10 serve hot with additional butter and maple syrup. a dusting of confectioners sugar is a nice touch, too.
