Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon of salt until no lumps remain.
  2. In a separate bowl, blend 2 cups of buttermilk, 2 large eggs, ¼ cup of melted and cooled butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Gently pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined and fold in 1 cup of finely chopped pecans.
  4. Allow the pancake batter to rest for about 10-15 minutes while preheating your griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat, around 350°F (175°C).
  5. Using a measuring cup, pour ¼ cup of batter onto the preheated griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Once cooked, transfer the Fluffy Pecan Pancakes to a warm plate and serve them warm with your choice of toppings.
