SIMPLE. EASY. QUICK. FLUFFY. The best fluffy pancakes recipe you will ever find, full of tips and tricks to help you perfect your pancakes.
Every single Sunday begins with pancakes… and ends with leftover pancakes. These are everything you want in a pancake. They’re soft and so fluffy… each mouthful melts in your mouth. You’ll be reaching for more than one… stack. Possibly. Probably.
It all starts with the batter. Too thick and they will be gluggy and undercooked on the inside. Too runny, and the pancakes will spread out and won’t fluff up. I like to test the batter with my spoon or ladle, lifting it gently above the rim of the bowl. It has to be thick, but able to run slowly and nicely off the spoon. A couple of lumps is okay, but I do like to smooth out my batter as much as I can, gently with a wire whisk.
Behold… perfect pancakes. Almost like a good sponge cake!
Directions
Step 1
Combine together the flour, sugar (or sweetener), baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large-sized bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the milk, slightly cooled melted butter, vanilla and egg.
Step 2
Use a wire whisk to whisk the wet ingredients together first before slowly folding them into the dry ingredients. Mix together until smooth (there may be a couple of lumps but that's okay). (The batter will be thick and creamy in consistency. If you find the batter too thick -- doesn't pour off the ladle or out of the measuring cup smoothly -- fold a couple tablespoons of extra milk into the batter at a time until reaching desired consistency).
Step 3
Set the batter aside and allow to rest while heating up your pan or griddle.
Step 4
Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over low-medium heat and wipe over with a little butter to lightly grease pan. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the pan and spread out gently into a round shape with the back of your ladle or measuring cup.
Step 5
When the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip with a spatula and cook until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
Step 6
Serve with honey, maple syrup, fruit, ice cream or frozen yoghurt, or enjoy plain!
For fluffier pancakes, you can add baking soda, however, if you're sensitive to the taste, leave it out. Usually, for every cup of flour, add ⅛ of a teaspoon of baking soda. This will turn your plain/all-purpose flour into self-raising flour. For Australian readers, you can use self-raising flour instead of plain flour. If using SR flour, remove the baking soda completely and only add 1 teaspoon of baking powder per 1 cup of flour. For equal-sized pancakes, use a measuring cup to pour your batter. I usually use ladles that measure ¼ cup or ⅓ cup of batter for each pancake.
