Grab a big bowl and toss in the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Give it all a good stir with a whisk so it's evenly mixed up.

In a smaller bowl, stir together the buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla. While stirring, slowly pour in the melted butter and keep whisking until it all comes together.

Add the wet mix into the bowl with your dry stuff. Stir gently with a wooden spoon just until the ingredients come together. It's okay if you see a few bits of dry flour—don't overdo it.

Lightly coat a non-stick skillet with oil or a bit of cooking spray. Set it on medium-low heat and let it warm up for about five minutes.

Spoon some batter into the prepped skillet (around ½–⅔ cup for each one). Wait until bubbles start popping on the surface and the edges look set, then flip with a spatula. Cook till both sides are a nice golden color.

Keep cooking the rest of the batter, greasing the pan lightly between batches. Serve them hot with a dab of salted butter and some maple syrup.
