Instructions

- Pour batter onto a hot skillet and cook until bubbles form and edges are set, then flip and cook until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For optimal texture, mix the ingredients gently to avoid overbeating and ensure fluffy pancakes. If you don't have baking powder, you can substitute it with a combination of baking soda and cream of tartar. To enhance flavor, consider adding vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Remember, the batter should be thick but pourable; adjust the milk if necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?
Yes, you can substitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour, but the texture may be denser. To improve fluffiness, consider mixing half whole wheat and half all-purpose flour for a healthier option without compromising too much on lightness.
What should I do if my batter is too thick?
If your batter turns out too thick, gradually add a little more milk until you achieve the desired consistency. The batter should be thick but pourable, allowing it to spread slightly when poured onto the skillet.
Is it necessary to grease the skillet?
No, do not grease the skillet when making these pancakes. The batter will naturally release from a well-heated non-stick skillet, ensuring that you get perfectly cooked pancakes without sticking.
