THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!

Makes 10-12 pancakes

INGREDIENTS
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 Tablespoons sugar
2 large eggs
2 cups buttermilk (or milk plus 2 Tablespoons lemon juice)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
Additional butter for the griddle

METRIC
272 g flour
8 g baking powder
4 g baking soda
2 g salt
36 g sugar
100 g eggs
16 oz milk
30 g vinegar or lemon juice
4 g vanilla
42 g unsalted butter*

*or use salted butter and omit salt

For serving: maple syrup, butter, fresh fruit on the side

INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar with a rubber spatula. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk (or milk + lemon juice or vinegar), vanilla and melted butter. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix with the spatula (don’t overmix; lumps are okay).

Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. After 3-5 minutes, sprinkle water on the heated pan; if the water “dances,” it’s hot enough to use. Place a small pat of butter on the pan and spread the butter around the surface.

Using a 1/3-cup measuring cup or small ladle, pour batter onto the skillet to form a pancake. (If the batter is too thick, add 1-2 Tablespoons more buttermilk or milk until you reach desired consistency.) When the uncooked side starts to bubble and the sides of the pancake begin to dry, the pancake is ready to flip. Use a pancake turner (large flat spatula) to flip. Cook for 1-2 minutes more or until underside is golden.

Transfer pancakes to plates and serve with a pat of butter and drizzle of syrup. Yum!

I just tried and followed your recipe to a T and OMG, this will now be my go to pancake recipe. It's so fluffy and really tastes great like in my favorite IHOP. My homemade blueberry syrup is a match made in heaven. Thank you.

Marie, I made this pancake recipe just now and served some to my 89 year old Mom, and in her words, “these are the best pancakes I have EVER, EVER, EVER eaten!!” I agree completely!!

So, thanks very, very much from a fellow Texas family! We will be enjoying this recipe from now on!

[brianfarnell]

I’ve tried about 5 YouTube pancake recipes over the past several weeks. This recipe and video is by far the best. Thank you!

[brianholloway]

I am from Australia I'm 70 years old and for the first time I've heard someone talk sensibly and why it works and how it works which is a great thing thank you.

[Tonya]

I just made these and they are the best pancakes I have ate! I had been making them wrong. I followed your recipe to a tee and I am so glad I did! Thank You for sharing!

[SheaSF]

Having been raised by a baker who learned by her mother and her mother, I've never had the science explained to me. Thank you.

[marieantoinette]

Amazingly delicious Pancake recipe! I love pancakes but figured I have to go to a diner or IHOP for really good pancakes because my previous recipes didn't measure up, but not anymore! I'm addicted to this recipe and will be making this every time I want pancakes! I'll be sure to tell friends and family about this recipe! I really appreciate all the details you give with the recipe like how to get fried tops or smooth tops, the oils, the pans., heating the pans and water dancing...Amazing video! Thanks so much for passing on your knowledge from you and your dad!🥰

[JRNurse]

Almost my exact recipe except I whip the egg whites separately and fold them in. I love how you say to wait until the water dances on the griddle as my Mom said that too!

[stevejobe]

Wow, I’m a first-time viewer of one of your videos, and I am so thrilled to find your channel!! Your content is spectacular!! You obviously have very extensive culinary training and a lot of experience. Your explanations of the science/chemistry/physics realities of cooking and how to harness them to elevate your cooking are absolutely excellent, and for those of us who aspire to greatness as mere amateur chefs, it is exactly what we need!!! Not only all that, but you are ADORABLE!! 😉

I just happened to run into your channel while perusing for "fluffy pancakes." I must say you have a penchant for cooking. Your instructions are so easy to follow & don't require a lot of effort. I'm hooked & subscribed to your channel!😁👌🏻❤️ North Carolina Fan! 😁👌🏻👍

[tessieteffer]

This is a great pancake recipe, thank you. My mother, who died @ age 95, used to make delicious and pluffy pancakes. Unfortunately I didn’t pay attention when she’s making it and forgot to ask her her recipe. I made it, in a hurry and my daughter with my 2 granddaughters, including me, loved the pancakes, eating all it for lunch. Thumbs up 👍

[CM-hoic]

I've been using a similar recipe for almost 50 years. Only changes l do is adding equal parts unbleached flour, cake flour & 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar. Leaving your pancake batter sit for 10-15 minutes is key for great pancakes 🥞. Love how you explain every step 👌

[mollythomas]

You are such a great cook and a super teacher, explaining every step and the reason for each tip. Definitely going to try soon.👏👌

[correenmalone]

Made your pancakes this morning for my daughter's birthday, they were indeed soft and fluffy and a big hit. Had them with chocolate sauce, pouring cream and berrys. Thank you❤🇦🇺🦘.

[cecilialamb]

I tried your pancakes this morning and WoW!! Love them so much. My hubby said they were the best I've ever made!! I'm not a huge fan of pancakes, but this recipe has changed my tune!! 🥰 Love all your videos! God's abundant blessings to you!!

[thatgirl]

I did make the recipe, they turned out exactly as you say, I bought Buttermilk, for 2 people this recipe makes a lot, because of the amount and not wanting to throw away this tasty batter, next I’m going to make half a recipe.
I live close to an Amish town, I had Amish maple syrup from this years fresh batch, used Kerrygold butter. Ohhh yes very Tasty. Next I need to make half a recipe. Worth a try

[saundraagnew]

Thank you this is the best pancake I have ever made. You were so true to the ingredients, most people that post don’t tell the truth about the measurements. I didn’t want a big batch so I split everything in half and it was awesome. Thank you so much I can’t wait to make them for my entire family ❤

[sebastianalanboyd]

The best, very informative and very clear tutorial I've ever came across! ❤

[margaretburnham]

Thank you so much. I'm almost 60 and this will be my new go to recipe.
I'm expecting tons of compliments and will give you the credit
