Equipment
- Wooden Spoon
- Skillet
- Whisk
- Frying Pan
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled slightly)
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons multi-colored jimmies-type sprinkles
- Whipped cream For topping
- Additional sprinkles For topping
- Butter & maple syrup For serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt, and nutmeg if using.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and whisk just until incorporated. Stir in the sprinkles.
- Heat a non-stick griddle to 325 degrees, or place a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add a little butter, if desired.
- Scoop pancake batter by the scant 1/2 cup full onto griddle or pan. Cook until the pancakes begin to look a little dry around the edges and start to form bubbles, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Flip and cook for another minute or so until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
- Top with whipping cream, sprinkles, and a birthday candle. Serve with butter and maple syrup.

- Tip 4: Feel free to mix in chocolate chips to create different variations.
