Servings 6 servings (3 pancakes)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 cup buttermilk + an additional ¼ cup if needed
  • 2 eggs separated
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp almond extract
  • ¼ cup salted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder.
  • In a small bowl, beat egg whites until they reach soft peaks.
  • In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg yolks, melted butter, and both extracts.
  • Slowly add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to combine. DO NOT overmix. There may be flour clump in the batter, but that is okay.
  • Now, fold in the egg white, only folding a few times until barely combined. You do not want to deflate the egg whites.
  • Heat a buttered griddle or skillet over medium low heat. Scoop batter into the pan with an ice cream scoop or ¼ cup measure.
  • Cook until the top of the pancakes look dry, and bubbles emerge, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook an additional 30 seconds-1 minute.
  • Serve immediately with butter and warm syrup.
