3
In another bowl, mix together buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, and the beaten egg.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Some lumps are okay; avoid overmixing.

In a separate skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium-high heat until golden and crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Wipe the skillet clean to avoid any burnt bits affecting your pancakes.

Pour 1/2 cup of the batter onto the preheated griddle for each pancake, place a strip of cooked bacon on top, then lightly spoon some batter over the bacon.

Cook until edges are set and bubbles form on the surface. Flip the pancake and cook until golden beneath.

Repeat the process with the remaining batter and bacon slices.
