Tips to Make Best Fluffy Pancake
- Don’t overmix the batter; it’s okay if there are a few lumps. This helps keep the pancakes fluffy!
- Make sure your skillet is hot before pouring in the batter, but not so hot that it burns the pancakes.
- Feel free to experiment! Add blueberries, chocolate chips, or even peanut butter to the batter for a fun twist.
Variation
For a healthier twist, try substituting whole wheat flour for some or all of the all-purpose flour. It adds a nice nutty flavor!
