For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by whisking together 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Buttermilk adds a delicious tang and makes the pancakes even more tender. Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can result in tough pancakes. Make sure the griddle is hot enough before adding the batter. If it's not hot enough, the pancakes will spread too thin.

Jul 29, 2024I accidentally overmixed the batter and the pancakes were a bit tough, but still tasty. I'll be more careful next time!
