Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 slices of bacon

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of buttermilk, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown. Keep warm in a low oven while preparing the rest of the platter.
- In a separate skillet, cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Using the same skillet, fry 2 large eggs to your desired doneness.
- To serve, place 2 pancakes on each plate, top with butter, and drizzle with maple syrup. Serve with bacon and eggs on the side. Enjoy your Waffle House Original Pancake Platter!
