🥞 Fluffy Homemade Pancakes
These soft, thick, and fluffy pancakes are perfect for breakfast or brunch! They’re light on the inside, beautifully golden on the outside, and delicious with butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or honey. 🍯🫐🍓
🛒 Ingredients
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1¾ cups (420 ml) milk
- ¼ cup (60 g) melted unsalted butter, plus more for cooking
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
🥣 Instructions
1. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together:
- Flour
- Sugar
- Baking powder
- Baking soda
- Salt
2. Mix the Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together:
- Eggs
- Milk
- Melted butter
- Vanilla extract
3. Make the Batter
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. A few small lumps are perfectly fine—don’t overmix, or the pancakes may become tough.
Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes for extra fluffy pancakes.
4. Cook the Pancakes
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
- Lightly grease with butter.
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form across the surface and the edges begin to look set (about 2–3 minutes).
- Flip carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes, until golden brown.
5. Serve
Stack the pancakes and top with:
- 🧈 Butter
- 🍁 Maple syrup
- 🍯 Honey
- 🍓 Fresh strawberries
- 🫐 Blueberries
- 🍌 Banana slices
- 🍫 Chocolate chips
- 🥜 Chopped nuts

💡 Tips
- Don’t press the pancakes with a spatula while cooking.
- Letting the batter rest makes them even fluffier.
- Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while making the rest.
