  4. Whisk flour mixture into buttermilk mixture until moistened, with small to medium lumps remaining.
  5. In a large cast-iron, nonstick skillet or on a griddle, cook bacon over medium-high until fat is rendered and bacon is browned on one side, about 5-6 minutes. Flip and cook until golden and crisp on the underside, about 1-3 minutes more.
