Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. In a separate bowl, whisk 2 large eggs, 1 cup buttermilk, and 3 tbsp melted butter until smooth. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined, about 30 seconds.
- Step 2: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup batter into the skillet, then place 1 oz chopped crispy bacon in the center. Top with another 1/4 cup batter and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Step 3: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup fresh raspberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until berries break down and mixture thickens.
- Step 4: Serve pancakes warm with raspberry compote and 2 tbsp maple syrup drizzled over each portion.
