Pancakes

 * 1) Preheat a griddle or frying pan to 350°F.
 * 2) Combine buttermilk with egg whites, then combine melted butter with egg yolks. Combine the two mixtures.
 * 3) Pour wet mixture over dry mixture and stir for 10 seconds only. Walk away if you feel the need to stir more.
 * 4) Grease griddle with butter and wipe with paper towels until you can't see it.
 * 5) Gently ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle and sprinkle on fruit if desired. When bubbles begin to set around the edges of the pancake and the griddle-side of the cake is golden, gently flip the pancakes. Continue to cook 2–3 minutes or until the pancake is set.
 * 6) Serve.
