Tips for Making Fluffy Pancakes:
These pancakes will become a staple in your home! They are easy to make with simple ingredients right out of your pantry as well as thick and fluffy. Delicious pancakes every time!
- Size of pancake: I used 1/3 cup of mix to pour onto the skillet. This made about 10 pancakes. You are welcome to make the pancakes smaller or bigger depending on your preference.
- Doubling recipe: My grandma’s fluffy pancakes recipe can be doubled with all the same ingredients. If it is too thick add a 1/8 of a teaspoon water.
- Keeping pancakes warm: If you are doubling the recipe or need to keep them warm while cooking, place the pancakes on a baking sheet in a single layer and keep warm in the oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit until ready to serve.
- Cooking spray substitute: If you don’t have cooking spray, butter also works for greasing the skillet or griddle. Scooping butter out of the carton is one of spreading it and letting it melt or using a stick of butter, directly apply the butter to the skillet or griddle and melt over top.
- Cleaning skillet or griddle: In-between cooking pancakes try to wipe off the excess cooking spray or butter for the next batch of mix to be cooked. This will leave the pancakes a golden brown each time.
- Making pancakes ahead of time: Cook the pancakes according to the directions. Let them cool completely then wrap them individually or in stacks using plastic wrap. Place inside a ziplock bag or airtight container. Store in the refrigerator up to 5 days or freeze for 1 month. When ready to warm up, place in the microwave, skillet or oven until they are warmed through.
