1 tbsp granulated sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract

For cooking

unsalted butter oil or neutral oil, for the pan

Instructions

1
Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the blender, followed by the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Blend on low speed for 10–15 seconds, just until the batter is smooth and no dry streaks remain — do not over-blend.
2
Let the batter rest in the blender for 5 minutes while you heat the pan. This allows the leaveners to activate and the flour to hydrate fully.
