Everything You Need to Know About IHOP Buttermilk Pancakes
IHOP's Buttermilk Pancakes are the dish that built one of America's most beloved breakfast chains. The recipe has been refined over decades into a formula that produces pancakes with an unbeatable combination of crispy edges, a golden exterior, and a fluffy, light interior. Five pancakes arrive at your table stacked and steaming, accompanied by a generous pat of butter and warm maple syrup. The buttermilk in the batter gives the pancakes a subtle tang that balances the sweetness of the syrup. IHOP has been serving these pancakes since 1958, and they remain the most ordered item on the menu by a significant margin. Whether you order them plain or customized with fruit toppings, chocolate chips, or whipped cream, IHOP Buttermilk Pancakes are a breakfast institution.
