👩‍🍳 How to Make Pancakes at Home

Step 1: Mix the Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
Pour wet ingredients into dry. Gently fold just until combined (batter will be lumpy—don’t overmix!).

Step 2: Cook to Perfection

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush lightly with butter.
Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet.

When bubbles form on the surface and edges look set (about 2 minutes), flip carefully.
Cook the other side for 1–2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 3: Serve & Enjoy

Stack warm pancakes on a plate. Top with butter, maple syrup, honey, or fresh fruit for the ultimate breakfast treat!

Pro Tip: For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 10 minutes before cooking.

🥣 Favorite Toppings

• Classic: Butter, maple syrup

• Indulgent: Whipped cream, chocolate chips, caramel sauce

• Fresh: Mixed berries, banana slices, nuts

• Fun: Nutella, peanut butter, flavored yogurt

📝 Recipe Variations

• Blueberry pancakes: Add a handful of blueberries to the batter before cooking.

• Chocolate chip pancakes: Sprinkle chocolate chips in the batter for a sweet treat.

• Whole wheat: Swap half the flour with whole wheat flour for extra fiber.

❄️ Storage & Reheat Tips

• Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

• Reheat in a toaster or microwave until warm.

• Pancakes freeze well for up to 2 months—stack with parchment paper in between and freeze.
