Perfectly Fluffy Pancakes Every Time!

There’s nothing quite like waking up to the aroma of freshly cooked pancakes—golden on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside. While pancakes seem simple, achieving that perfect fluffiness can be surprisingly tricky. Whether you’re preparing a weekend brunch or a quick breakfast, mastering the art of fluffy pancakes can elevate your culinary reputation. Here’s a detailed guide to ensure you get perfectly fluffy pancakes every time, along with a step-by-step method to make them just right.

🥞 Why Are Some Pancakes Flat or Tough?

Before we dive into the recipe, it’s important to understand what makes pancakes fluffy:

• Leavening agents like baking powder and baking soda create bubbles that help the batter rise.
• Not overmixing the batter helps retain air pockets.
• Using the right heat allows the pancakes to cook evenly without burning the outside.

🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4–6)

• 1½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
• 3½ teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1¼ cups (300ml) milk (whole milk works best)
• 1 large egg
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus more for the pan)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)

🥄 Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Prepare the Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, sift together:

• The flour
• Baking powder
• Sugar
• Salt

Sifting is crucial—it aerates the flour and ensures even distribution of leavening agents, which leads to fluffier pancakes.
