Notes

Short Notes for Perfect Pancakes

  • Don’t overmix – Lumps are fine; overmixing makes pancakes dense.
  • Use fresh baking powder – Old leavening won’t make pancakes rise.
  • Let batter rest – 5–10 minutes improves texture.
  • Cook on medium-low heat – Prevents burning, ensures even cooking.
  • Flip when bubbles pop – This means it’s time to turn them over!
  • No pressing with a spatula – Keeps pancakes fluffy.
  • Use buttermilk for extra softness – Or make a DIY version with vinegar + milk.
  • Try fun toppings – Fruits, nuts, chocolate, or even savory options.
  • Store properly – Refrigerate for 3 days or freeze with parchment paper in between.
  • Reheat right – Use a toaster, oven, or skillet to keep them fresh.
