Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream.
To make chocolate chip pancakes, simply add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the pancake batter before cooking.
For a healthier version of pancakes, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. You can also add fruits or vegetables to the batter, such as blueberries, bananas, or carrots.
