Whether you call them pancakes or hotcakes, delicious fluffy pancakes from scratch was probably something you enjoyed as a kid. And, you can continue to enjoy today. Fluffy pancakes are a comfort food appreciated all over the world, and they\u2019re a breakfast staple. But you can dig into these easy homemade pancakes for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You can include them as a side dish, or you can use them as a conduit for an endless number of proteins, fruits, or vegetables. Anything goes great on a pancake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you\u2019re making pancakes at home, you\u2019ll more than likely be using a store-bought pancake mix. But if you truly want to go from scratch, you\u2019ll only need four ingredients to make up the dry components of your mix: flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the wet components of your mix, you\u2019ll just need butter or oil, milk or buttermilk, and eggs. If you do any home cooking, you probably have all the ingredients for pancakes in your kitchen right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Depending on their size, these measurements will yield approximately 10 to 14 pancakes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, mix your dry ingredients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next, mix your wet ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, slowly pour your wet mixture into your dry mixture, mixing it all together with a rubber spatula. Be very careful not to overwork the batter. You want to break down all of the dry clumps, but overworking the batter will eliminate the air bubbles. And you desperately need those precious air bubbles! They are the purpose of the baking powder, and they\u2019re what make your fluffy pancakes so fluffy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Grease a cast-iron skillet or electric griddle and heat it to about 375 degrees. If it\u2019s too low, your pancakes will be tough. If the temperature is too high, the outside of your pancakes will burn by the time the center is done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Scoop about \u2153 cup of batter onto your hot surface for each pancake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the entire top of the pancake is bubbling, you\u2019ll notice that the edges are starting to turn brown. That\u2019s how you know it\u2019s time to flip! Learning when to flip a pancake is something that every home cook learns as they go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It will take the other side of your pancake slightly less time to cook than the first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When they\u2019re done, just take them off the griddle or skillet, and you\u2019re all finished! Don\u2019t forget to turn off your griddle or stove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now just add your desired toppings to your pancakes. Stack them up and serve them with butter, maple syrup, and some fresh berries on top. You can use them as a bed for some juicy fried chicken. Or, to encase a sweet fruit syrup. There are countless ways to enjoy these delicious, fluffy pancakes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
