I need a GOOD recipe for scratch pancakes. I've exhausted the interweb and can't find one I like.

This recipie creates the best pancakes I've ever eaten... As stated before, the key is to not over-beat the batter for light and fluffy pancakes. This calls for blueberries, but they are not necessary at all.
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, plus some for frying
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
Serving suggestions: whipped cream and maple syrup
In a large bowl sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Beat the eggs with the buttermilk and melted butter. Combine the dry and the wet ingredients into a lumpy batter, being careful not to over mix, see Cook's Note*.
Heat some butter in a skillet over medium heat. Spoon 1/3 cup of batter into the skillet and sprinkle the top with some of the blueberries. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and maple syrup.
*Cook's Note: Over mixed batter will result in flat, heavy pancakes.Last edited by Split Arrow; 11-17-2011, 11:58 AM.

Here are the ones that I have made for years.
1 egg beaten not whipped.
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
3 teaspoons baking powder...not baking soda.
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons oil
Beat the egg and then add the rest of the ingredients and mix. Do not mix to much or it will make them flat. Just make sure all of the ingredients are mixed and flour is absorbed. Cook on a medium heat non stick pan. They should fluff up to about a 1/4 inch high.
