Combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mix together the buttermilk, vanilla, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk together until most, but not all, of the lumps are gone. Do not overmix.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray or grease with butter.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet and cook until bubbles form and pop on the surface. Flip the pancake and cook until browned on the bottom and the center is done. Continue with remaining batter.

Notes
Buttermilk Substitute: Add 1 tablespoon of white distilled vinegar or lemon juice to 3/4 cup of cow's milk. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes to thicken. Use as buttermilk in this recipe.The cinnamon and nutmeg are totally optional, but we love the warmth they add to the pancakes.
