Variants:
Chocolate Chip Pancakes: Fold 1/4 cup of chocolate chips into the batter for a sweet treat.
Banana Pancakes: Add mashed ripe banana to the batter for a fruity twist.

Vegan Pancakes: Replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water) and use almond milk instead of buttermilk.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use regular milk instead of buttermilk?
A: Yes, you can use regular milk. To mimic buttermilk, add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to the milk and let it sit for a few minutes to curdle before using.
Q: Why are my pancakes flat instead of fluffy?
A: Overmixing the batter or using too much liquid can lead to flat pancakes. Be sure to mix the batter until just combined, and avoid adding too much milk.
Q: Can I double or halve the recipe?
A: Yes, this recipe can easily be doubled or halved to suit your needs. Just adjust the ingredients accordingly and follow the same cooking instructions.
