    How to Make Golden Buttermilk Sour Cream Pancakes

    1. Prepare Dry Pancake Mix

    Combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt, and sugar in a medium bowl. Whisk together until evenly distributed and store in an airtight container if not using immediately.

    2. Whisk Egg Whites

    Separate the eggs, placing the whites in a clean bowl. Whisk the egg whites vigorously until stiff peaks form.

    3. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, buttermilk, and sour cream until smooth. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while continuing to whisk.

    4. Fold Egg Whites

    Gently fold the whisked egg whites into the buttermilk mixture to maintain the airy texture.

    5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture over the prepared dry pancake mix and fold together until just combined. The batter should still have some lumps.

    6. Cook Pancakes

    Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat for about five minutes. Lightly grease with butter or oil. Using a 1/4-cup measure, scoop the batter onto the skillet, cooking four pancakes at a time. Cook for about two minutes on each side, until golden brown.

    7. Serve Pancakes

    Serve the pancakes immediately with warm maple syrup and a pat of butter, or keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.

    Variations

    Blueberry Lemon Pancakes

    Fold in fresh or frozen blueberries to the batter, and add lemon zest for a bright, fruity flavor.

    Chocolate Chip Pancakes

    Mix in semi-sweet chocolate chips for a dessert-like treat, perfect for a special breakfast or brunch.

    Berry Blast

    Gently fold in fresh or frozen berries such as blueberries, raspberries, or diced strawberries. The fruit will not only add a pop of color but also a natural sweetness and slight tartness.

    Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

    Add canned pumpkin puree and a mixture of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves for a fall-inspired twist.

    Sweet Toppings

    Drizzle with maple syrup, honey, or a homemade fruit compote. Add a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
