This is exactly what weekend breakfasts are all about.
These are fluffy and spongy American style pancakes and the best pancakes I’ve ever eaten. I can already see the barrage of comments about those Japanese style pancakes and how light and fluffy they are but in truth I don’t see them as pancakes more as souffle and yes, they take as much work as a souffle to get right. I do love them, but they require as much work and attention as a new born baby. These pancakes are simple and delicious just a matter of stirring wet ingredients into dry and dolloping into a greased pan for a few minutes. To get even sized pancakes I would recommend using a quarter cup measure it makes the perfect sized pancakes. Enjoy warm from the pan with an ooze of maple syrup, crispy bacon or with lemon juice and sugar.
I believe it is also very important not to use a whisk to combine the batter as this over works the batter making a tough pancakes. Instead, simply fold the ingredients together with a rubber spatula until just combined you want to remove most lumps but if the odd one remains it will not affect the pancakes.

In a bowl combine the dry ingredients flour, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, sugar and salt and mix to disperse ingredients.
In a small measuring jug or bowl mix together the buttermilk and eggs. Tip into the dry ingredients and fold in with a spatula until just combined.
Leave the batter to rest while you grease and heat a non stick pan over a low heat. When hot add a 1/4 cup measure of batter. Cook on the first side until bubbles form on the top then flip over and cook for about 1 minute. You should be able to cook four at a time, so simply repeat until all batter is used. Remove to plate and eat with your favourite accompaniments.
