Buttermilk Pancakes

1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, malted milk powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla.
3
Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk until just combined. Allow the batter to rest for 15 minutes uncovered at room temperature.
4
Meanwhile, add the egg whites to a small bowl and use an electric mixer to beat until soft peaks form.
5
After the batter has rested for 15 minutes, gently fold the whipped egg whites in until fully combined.
6
Heat a skillet over low-medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
7
Use a ¼ cup measuring cup (or small cup) to scoop the batter and pour onto the hot skillet.
8
Cook until bubbles form all over the top and the bottom is light brown, then flip over and cook for another minute or so until the bottom is light brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet in between each pancake.
9
Serve immediately with homemade whip cream, fresh fruit, and Grade A maple syrup.

Whip Cream

1
Add the heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whisk on medium speed until it begins to foam.
2
Slowly pour in the sugar, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be careful of over-whipping!

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Separate and Fold Egg Whites 🥚
    Whip egg whites to stiff peaks separately, then gently fold into batter last to trap air bubbles and create maximum fluffiness without deflating.
  • Rest Your Batter 😴
    Let the batter sit for 5 minutes before cooking; this allows baking soda and baking powder to fully activate, resulting in superior rise and texture.
  • Griddle Temperature is Critical 🌡️
    Maintain medium heat and test with a water droplet—it should sizzle gently and evaporate in 3-4 seconds for golden exteriors and fluffy centers.
  • Malted Milk Powder Secret 🎯
    Bloom the malted milk powder in the buttermilk for 2 minutes before mixing to unlock deeper, richer diner-style flavor that sets these pancakes apart.
  • Flip Only Once 🔄
    Wait until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set before flipping just once; multiple flips compress the batter and destroy the coveted fluffy structure.
