A hit with adults and children alike, these light and fluffy one-bowl buttermilk pancakes have become a weekend staple. The batter comes together in no time, and the recipe yields a ton. What’s more, the pancakes freeze beautifully! 🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞
Confession: Pancakes have never been my forte. For about a year now, however, I’ve had success with The Kitchn’s lofty buttermilk pancakes, which call for a peculiar trick: you separate the egg yolks from the whites; then you incorporate the yolks into the batter before the whites. The whites are never beaten. It’s odd but it works.
The rub with this recipe is that it requires three bowls: one for the dry ingredients, one for the yolks, buttermilk, milk and butter, and one for the whites.
First thing in the morning, this is two too many bowls, and I’ve found that using one bowl works equally well: I whisk the eggs directly into the dry ingredients as though I am making pasta, then add the milk and buttermilk, and finally the melted butter (which I do in the microwave).
These pancakes have become a family fave and a weekend staple. The batter makes enough for a ton of pancakes and leftover pancakes freeze beautifully — pop them in the toaster oven to reheat and ta-da, pancakes in an instant!
How to Make One-Bowl Buttermilk Pancakes, Step by Step
First, crack the eggs directly into the whisked together dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar):
Incorporate the eggs into the dry ingredients as though you are making pasta dough:
Then add the milk and buttermilk, and finally the melted butter:
Cook in an oiled skillet or stovetop griddle or an electric griddle util puffed and golden on each side:

Notes:
The best trick I’ve learned for cooking pancakes is to go small — I use my 2-tablespoon measuring cup to portion out batter. The pancakes cook quickly and evenly when I use this small scoop.
If you want to use sourdough discard in this recipe, simply cut back some of the flour and water, preferably by weight. So, for example, if you want to use 100 grams of sourdough discard (at 100% hydration) in this recipe, cut back 50 grams of the flour and 50 grams of the buttermilk. That would call for using 270 grams of flour and 418 grams of buttermilk.
If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, you can make it from scratch: Place 2 cups on buttermilk in a liquid measure or bowl and add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice or white vinegar. Let stand for 5 minutes; then stir until smooth.
2 1/2 cups ( 320 g ) flour
2 tablespoons ( 25 g ) sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ( 8 g ) salt
1 teaspoon ( 4 g ) baking powder
1 teaspoon ( 5 g ) baking soda
2 large eggs
2 cups ( 468 grams ) buttermilk
1/2 cup ( 128 g ) milk
10 tablespoons ( 142 g ) butter, salted or unsalted, melted and cooled
Canola or peanut oil for frying
- Set a large shallow skillet or stovetop griddle over low heat.
- Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Add the eggs and beat with a fork till the eggs are whisked and incorporated into the surrounding flour, as if you were making pasta. Add the buttermilk and milk, and stir with a spatula to combine. Add the melted, cooled butter and stir until combined.
- Turn the heat under the skillet up to medium. When hot, film with a thin layer of oil. Using a two-tablespoon (1/8 cup) measure or a large spoon or a small ladle, drop the pancake batter into the skillet giving space between each pancake to allow for spreading — the batter will spread into a pancake about 3 inches wide.
- Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes. (If the pancake scorches or the oil smokes, lower the heat.) When the bubbles that form on the edges of the pancakes look dry and airy, use a thin spatula to gently lift one side and peek underneath. If the pancake is golden brown, flip and cook on the other side for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, or until the bottom of the pancake is golden brown.
- Transfer to a cooling rack briefly before serving. Scrape any stray crumbs or scraps out of the skillet, add a little more oil, and continue to cook the remaining batter.
- Store leftover pancakes at room temperature in an airtight bag or vessel for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

I never imagined posting a recipe for tomato salsa nor following one in a cookbook till last Friday, when my neighbor Sandra had us over for dinner. As Cornell chicken charred on the grill, we all, children included, tucked into a bowl of salsa — it was irresistible.
When I asked what was so magical about her salsa, Sandra handed me The New Moosewood Cookbook opened to the salsa fresca page. I looked at the ingredient list for the tomato salsa and was happy to see nothing too unusual but struck by a few things: the inclusion of both lime juice and vinegar, olive oil and toasted cumin seed.
I learned to make salsa from a man who made salsa out of anything — blueberries, tomatillos, jicama, corn, whatever — but always included onion, jalapeno (or other hot pepper), herbs (parsley, cilantro, Thai basil, etc.), and lime or lemon juice. He never used oil, vinegar or any spices in his salsas, and as a result, I’ve never either.
But Sandra’s salsa was SO good. I made it the following morning — the garden demanded so — and served it with scrambled eggs, wrapped in tortillas with cheese. We ate the remaining salsa throughout the day with chips, but I am convinced this salsa would be good on anything right now — grilled fish or chicken, a quesadilla, and of course any taco.
I love that this salsa uses both fresh lime juice and vinegar. I love the inclusion of toasted cumin seeds, which adds a subtle smokiness and reminds me of eating papadums. I love the touch of oil to balance out all of the acid.
Again, a recipe for salsa is not necessary nor could one ever be followed to a T. But a guide is nice, this one especially.
PS: Mango salsa . Grilled poblano salsa .
Love these chips:
Description
Adapted from The New Moosewood Cookbook , such a gem
Note: The original recipe calls for dropping the tomatoes into a potful of simmering water for 10 seconds and then peeling them. I don’t think that is necessary. I added an onion because I can’t imagine making salsa without one, but if you don’t have one, omit it.
If you don’t like cilantro, use parsley or basil. With cilantro, there is no need to pull leaves from stems — just chop it all up, stems and all.
Use this recipe as a guide — you can’t go wrong if you stick to it even roughly.
I love this with chips, of course, but it is extra special over breakfast tacos .
3 to 6 medium-sized ripe tomatoes, diced to yield about 4 cups
1 onion, red or white, diced to yield about a cup or two , doesn’t matter
2 to 4 scallions, minced to yield about 1/2 cup
2 medium cloves garlic, minced
a handful of cilantro or parsley or both, minced
1 teaspoon lightly toasted cumin seeds*
3/4 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon cider vinegar (or other)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from about 1/2 a lime)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 jalapeño, minced or crushed red pepper flakes to taste
chips for serving
*Note: To toast the cumin seeds, use a small skillet over a low flame. Watch carefully to prevent scorching.
- Combine everything in a large bowl. Taste. Adjust seasoning as necessary — specifically add more salt and more lime juice to taste. Chill until ready to serve.
