Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Fluffy Buttermilk Hotcakes.
Step 1
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together all-purpose flour, white sugar, baking soda, and salt until they harmonize beautifully.
Step 2
Next, introduce the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter to the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined—remember, a little lumpiness is perfectly fine; overmixing is the enemy of fluffy hotcakes.
Step 3
Now, with a delicate touch, fold in the wheat germ, ensuring it’s evenly scattered throughout the batter for a delightful nutty flavor.
Step 4
Preheat a lightly buttered griddle over medium-high heat, allowing it to reach the perfect cooking temperature.
Step 5
Once ready, pour generous spoonfuls of batter onto the griddle, watching as bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to dry—this should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 6
With care, flip the hotcakes and let them sizzle for another 2 to 3 minutes, until they achieve a golden-brown hue.
Step 7
Continue this delicious process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the griddle as needed to keep things slick.
Step 8
Enjoy the aroma of freshly cooked hotcakes filling your kitchen, and savor each bite of your homemade breakfast delight.
