- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
- If pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to avoid burning.
- Place cooked pancakes on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm while cooking the rest of the batter.
Notes
Serve warm topped with maple syrup or honey. Adding chopped nuts or dried fruits can enhance flavor and texture.
