Method
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk just until combined, leaving a few small lumps.
Rest the batter for 5 minutes while you heat a large frying pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly butter it.
Ladle the batter onto the griddle in rounds and cook for 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip and cook for a further 2 minutes until golden on both sides, then repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve stacked with a pat of butter and a drizzle of maple syrup.
