  2. In a small bowl, separate the eggs (white eggs in one and yolk in another)

  3. Whisk the egg yolks, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and melted butter together. Mix with the flour mixture, do not over mix it is okay to see small lumps.


    Whisk the egg whites until stiff (it foams up). I used a hand mixer to achieve this.
