Steps:
- 1. Warm the buttermilk on the stove top over low heat. Add the butter and stir until melted (be careful not to scorch the buttermilk).
- 2. Place the flour in a large bowl and slowly pour the warmed buttermilk mixture into it and then beat well to create a thick batter. Let stand for a minimum of 30 minutes, or better yet up to 1-2 hours.
- 3. Stir the sugar, baking soda, salt and vinegar into the eggs (that have been well beaten). Then, add this mixture to the flour and milk mixture and beat well (can use a mixer) to form a smooth batter without lumps.
- 4. Grease an iron griddle well (or heavy frying pan) and heat, over medium heat, until it's hot but not smoking. Drop the batter, one large tablespoon at a time, and cook for a few minutes or until golden brown. Flip the pancake and finish cooking on the other side. Continue until all the pancakes are done. You can keep the cooked pancakes warm by wrapping them in a towel.
- 5. Serve the pancakes with butter and jam!
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Make sure your griddle or pan is hot enough before adding the batter. This will help the pancakes cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the griddle or pan. Leave enough space between the pancakes so they can cook properly.
- Flip the pancakes only once. Over-flipping can make them tough.
- Cook the pancakes until they are golden brown on both sides.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.

Welsh pancakes, also known as crempogs, are a delicious and versatile breakfast dish. They can be served with a variety of toppings, from sweet to savory. With a little practice, you can master the art of making crempogs and enjoy them anytime you like. Remember, the key to making great crempogs is to use fresh ingredients and to cook them properly.
