Notes
Although they’re best right out of the pan you can make a big batch of pancakes and enjoy them for a few days afterwards. Wrap them up once they’re room temp and place in fridge. Pop them into the microwave in a covered dish on a low setting and they’ll be warm and delicious.!Don’t over-mix the batter. It’s really just getting mixed until it comes together. If you see a few pumps don’t worry. They’ll disappear when cooking.
PRO TIPS FOR THIS RECIPE
- DON’T over-mix you batter! Those little lumps are fine and will dissolve when the pancakes cook.
- You can DOUBLE or triple this recipe for more pancakes!
- No buttermilk? No problem! Add a tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to your milk, mix and set aside.
- The best pancakes come from using room temperature wet ingredients. If possible get the milk and egg out early but if you’re in a rush just zap them in the microwave for a minute after mixing together.
- If you’re microwaving butter cover the bowl with a small plate. The water in the butter will steam up and explode, splattering butter all over the microwave. You should of course always use 50% power when melting butter but better safe than sorry!
- If you’re adding berries, chocolate chips or thinly sliced apple, place them in the batter at the final stage and when you’re mixing the wet and dry together.
