SIMPLE, FLUFFY PANCAKES



Simple, Fluffy Pancakes image

Recipe video above. Simple, fluffy pancakes made from scratch, an essential that everyone should know! These are soft and fluffy, easy to make, and not too sweet so you can go wild with toppings. The key is getting the batter consistency right so it is easy to spread but doesn't spread too thinly so you get nice fluffy pancakes.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups / 300g plain / all purpose flour ((Note 1))
4 tsp baking powder ((Note 1))
1/4 cup / 55g white sugar ((caster / super fine is best but not essential))
Pinch of salt
1 egg
1 3/4 cups / 435 ml cups milk ((any type, any fat %))
1 tsp vanilla extract or essence
4 tsp butter (, for cooking)

Steps:

  • Place flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl, whisk to combine.
  • Add egg, milk and vanilla. Whisk until lump free - no longer than 30 seconds.
  • Heat a non stick skillet - use medium heat if you have a strong stove, medium high if you have a weak one. Add a tiny bit of butter (about 1/2 tsp) and swirl to melt. Use paper towel to mostly wipe the butter off (this is the trick to avoid a dodgy 1st pancake).
  • Pour 1/4 cup batter into the middle of the fry pan (I use a slightly heaped ice cream scoop with lever, standard is 1/4 cup).
  • Swirl pan lightly to spread or use the ice cream scoop edge to spread into 11cm / 4.5" circle (ruler is a must) (joking!).
  • When bubbles rise to the surface (see video), flip and cook the other side until golden.
  • Remove and keep warm in a low oven.
  • Use more butter every 2 to 3 pancakes - depends how good your non stick coating is.
  • Serve with toppings of choice!

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients, especially baking powder and baking soda. Old ingredients can make your pancakes flat and dense.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, which will make your pancakes tough.
  • Let the batter rest for at least 5 minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten to relax and will make your pancakes lighter and fluffier.
  • Use a well-seasoned griddle or frying pan. A non-stick pan is also a good option, but make sure it is well-heated before adding the batter.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the outsides of the pancakes will cook too quickly and the insides will be raw. Be patient while the pancakes cook, flipping them only once they have bubbles all over the surface.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Pancakes are best when they are hot and fluffy.

Conclusion:

With these tips, you can make perfect pancakes every time. Pancakes are a versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They can be topped with a variety of sweet or savory ingredients, making them a great option for any meal. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give pancakes a try. You won't be disappointed!
