Cooking

  • Cook for approximately 2 minutes, watching for bubbles to form on top, signaling that it's time to flip.
  • Flip and cook for an additional 20 to 30 seconds.
  • Once cooked, remove from the pan onto a clean plate or platter. Repeat with the remaining batter until all pancakes are made.

Serving

Notes

For extra fluffy pancakes, avoid over-blending your batter. You can also add spices like cinnamon or vanilla for extra flavor. Feel free to incorporate berries for a fruitier twist.
