Instructions

Step 1

Prepare Wet Ingredients

Begin by warming the milk until it is just nicely warm. Combine the warm milk with the hot water in a mixing bowl. Then, crack 3 eggs into the bowl and add 2 tablespoons of sugar. Mix well until combined.

Step 2

Combine Ingredients

Gradually pour the milk and water mixture into the egg and sugar blend while stirring continually. Next, sift in 200 grams of flour into the mixture. The batter should have a balanced consistency: not too runny, yet not too thick.

If the mix seems too liquidy, add up to 50 grams of additional flour to achieve the right texture.

Step 3

Incorporate Leavening Agents

Once the flour is well combined, add in 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 0.5 teaspoon of baking soda.

Stir in 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil for added richness. Allow the batter to rest for about 5–7 minutes as this will help the pancakes become lighter.

Step 4

Cook the Pancakes

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, pour a ladle of batter onto the skillet. Allow one side to cook until it is golden brown, which should take about 1–2 minutes.

Carefully flip the pancake to cook the other side for just a few seconds, then remove it from the skillet. This quick cooking method ensures that the pancakes remain tender and delicate.

Equipment

Variations

Gluten-Free and Vegan Variations: ✨ If you're looking to make this recipe gluten-free, you can substitute regular flour with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. Just make sure it contains a binding agent, such as xanthan gum, for the best results!

For a vegan option, swap eggs for a mixture of flaxseed meal and water (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal combined with 2.5 tablespoons of water equals one egg) and use plant-based milk like almond or oat milk. You can also use coconut oil instead of regular oil. These tasty substitutions will still yield fluffy pancakes everyone can enjoy!

Faq

  • Q: What should I do if my pancake batter is too thick?

    A: If your pancake batter is too thick, simply add a little more milk or water until you reach your desired consistency. It should be pourable but not too runny.

  • Q: How can I prevent my pancakes from sticking to the pan?

    A: Always preheat your skillet or griddle and make sure it's well-greased with oil or butter before pouring the batter. This will help create a non-stick surface for easy flipping.

  • Q: How long should I cook the pancakes on each side?

    A: Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on the first side until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  • Q: Can I make the batter ahead of time?

    A: Yes! You can prepare the batter in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. However, give it a good stir before using, as it may thicken a bit.

  • Q: What’s the best way to keep pancakes warm while cooking the rest?

    A: Keep cooked pancakes warm by placing them on a plate and covering them with a clean kitchen towel. You can also keep them in a low oven (around 200°F) until you’re ready to serve.

  • Q: How can I tell when the pancakes are fully cooked?

    A: Look for a nice golden brown color on both sides and ensure there are no wet spots or uncooked batter on the surface before serving!
