Instructions:

1. Mix the Dry Ingredients
   In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Wet Ingredients
   In another bowl, beat the eggs. Add the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.

3. Combine the Mixtures
   Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Do not overmix—small lumps are okay! Let the batter sit for 5–10 minutes for fluffier results.

4. Cook the Pancakes
   Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for 2–3 minutes or until bubbles form on top and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.

5. Serve Warm
   Stack the pancakes high on a plate and drizzle generously with warm maple syrup. Add a pat of butter on top if desired.
