Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour – This forms the base for a perfect light texture.
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar – Adds a rich caramel-like sweetness.
- 2 teaspoons baking powder – Ensures your pancakes rise beautifully.
- ½ teaspoon baking soda – Works with baking powder for an airy tender bite.
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt – Enhances the balance of sweet and savory flavors.
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs – Adds structure and richness to the batter.
- 1 ¾ cups buttermilk – Creates a tangy flavor and extra fluffiness.
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted – Gives the mix a buttery richness.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract – Adds warmth and depth to the flavor.
- 3 tablespoons caramel sauce – Infuses the batter with a luscious caramel flavor.
Instructions
Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, 2 tbsp of sugar, 1 tsp of baking powder, and a pinch of sea salt.
Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat 1 egg, 1 cup of milk, and 2 tbsp of melted butter until smooth. Add 1 tbsp of caramel sauce for that sweet twist.
Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until the batter is smooth. Be careful not to overmix.
Cooking the Pancakes/Waffles:
- For Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- For Waffles: Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it. Pour the batter onto the iron, close it, and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve: Stack your pancakes or waffles, drizzle with extra caramel sauce, and sprinkle a pinch of sea salt for that perfect sweet-salty balance.
