Ingredients for 8 pancakes

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 ½ cups buttermilk
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1 stick, melted
2 eggs, whites and yolks seperated
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for serving
blueberry, optional
chocolate chip, optional
maple syrup, for serving

In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and whisk to combine.
In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, add the buttermilk, melted butter, and egg yolks and whisk to combine.
Add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients and gently fold with a rubber spatula until just combined.
Add the egg whites and fold until just combined. Be sure not to overmix. Some lumps are okay.
Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes at room temperature.

If you want a fluffy or pancake like a really high pancake use cake flour and then add a additional teaspoon of baking powder

A good recipe is essential, and if you want a good rise on your pancakes, pour the batter into greased rings on your griddle. I learned that tip from my son after he worked breakfast at a restaurant.

oldest children have trauma from being that 1st pancake

[NobleTruths]

After separating the eggwhites from the yolk, the yolk is mixed in with the dry ingredients and milk/cream. The whites are whipped until fluffy, and gently folded (not heavily mixed!) into the batter just prior to pouring on the griddle.

you want lite fluffy pancakes..?
I use my own homegrown sourdough culture, mix about 150ml-SDc, 2cups water-3tblspn brSgr-3tsp salt-+/-4cups AP-Flour-i use white and brwn, it should still be thick but smooth batter-mix it in a large mason jar, cap it and stick in fridge for two days---hallelujah?
take your jar from the fridge and remove lid-heat n oil a skillet-med/heat, when it's smoking(about5minw8), pour the desired amount out, flip after 3-5min and finish with decoration of choice...of course not only are they hell'a fluffy but kinda funky too... ;p

my signature recipe is two cups of flour 2 tbsp of sugar two teaspoons of salt 1 egg 1tea spoon vanilla extract one tablespoon of lemon juice or freshly squeezed lemon doesn't matter 1 stick of butter melted, two cups of milk warmed up and basically for the milk you want to keep adding until you have a very loose consistency you want almost a liquefied batter. Once you get all that mixed up then add 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of baking soda and mix up again

The reason you're first pancakes are always bad is because you don't wait for the griddle to heat up enough. You let the mix rest but you don't let your griddle heat up to cook properly.

The perfect pancake recipe! I’m never going back to the box mix again. 🤩

[YakuiMeido]

Lumps will sort themselves out, but also sifting your dry ingredients first will be far more helpfull for getting those lumps out than more mixing after it's all together.

to save the 1st pancake use a paper towel and remove the excess of butter and make an even butter layer on the pan, this will allow the 1st pancake to cook as well as all others after that one will.

Biggest tip I learned was letting it sit for 30 minutes. It’s a full game changer and makes them taste like diner pancakes

I used to do mine like that: 1 tbsp milk + 1 egg + 3 tbsp flour + 1/2 tsp baking powder + 1 tbsp sugar and vanilla essence. At least the visual seems better than the video one; also, I like the taste, and everyone in my house too
