Fluffy Pancakes Recipe
Fluffy pancakes always make a delicious breakfast or brunch, and they are great for the whole family. Whether you like your pancakes with syrup, fresh fruit, sprinkles, melted butter, whipped cream, or a mixture of these, there is no doubt pancakes will start your day wonderfully. Making your own pancakes is very easy, and the following recipe shows you how to make light, fluffy pancakes. Served hot, these are sure to put a smile on everyone's face.
We are combining vinegar with milk to 'sour' the milk, then combining this with dry ingredients like flour, baking powder, sugar and more. The batter is whisked until it is free of lumps, and then you can cook it in a frying pan. Use a nonstick frying pan or skillet so you can toss the pancakes easily without having them stick.
You will be able to see when the pancakes are done. They will be set firm and golden brown. Our fluffy pancakes recipe makes 8 small pancakes, which is enough for 2 people, but feel free to make larger pancakes or double the recipe if you are cooking for the family, or even triple the recipe if you are feeding a crowd. Got any leftovers? No problem because these freeze well too!
