🥞 Ultimate Fluffy Pancakes (Better-Than-Classic)
🧾 Ingredients
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 cup (240ml) buttermilk (or milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice)
1 egg
2 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
1 tsp vanilla extract
👩🍳 Instructions
Mix dry ingredients
In a bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Mix wet ingredients
In another bowl, whisk buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
Combine gently
Pour wet into dry and mix just until combined.
👉 A few lumps are GOOD — overmixing kills fluffiness.
Rest the batter (secret step!)
Let it sit for 5–10 minutes. This makes them extra soft and airy.
Cook
Heat a pan on medium
Lightly butter it
Pour ~¼ cup batter
Cook until bubbles form, flip, cook another 1–2 min
🔥 Pro Tips (this is why they taste 1000x better)
Use buttermilk → gives that rich, slightly tangy flavor
Don’t press pancakes after flipping ❌
Cook on medium heat, not high (prevents burning + keeps them fluffy inside)
Add-ins idea: chocolate chips, banana slices, or a pinch of cinnamon
🍯 Serving Ideas
Honey or maple syrup
Fresh fruit
Yogurt + nuts
Or go crazy: butter + sugar for that nostalgic vibe
