Notes
Make sure your melted butter is cool. Adding butter that is too hot to your eggs can actually start to cook the eggs a bit, which you don't want.
You can create your own buttermilk by "souring milk". To do this, add 1/2 a tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1/2 cup regular milk and letting it set for 10-15 minutes.
