An Easy Fluffy Pancake Recipe from Scratch?! Yup! Say good bye to the box mix! This recipe taste way better and just uses a few simple ingredients!
Sunday mornings are pancake day in our house. When the kids were little I used to always make a big Sunday morning breakfast. It usually always included pancakes because what kid doesn’t love pancakes?
I have to confess though…I used to make my pancakes from a box mix. Sure it tasted ok but that was before I knew better. One bite of this Fluffy Pancake Recipe and you’ll never buy a box mix again. It’s just as quick and easy plus they taste so much better!
My son has continued our Sunday morning pancake breakfast tradition with his girlfriend and this is the recipe that he uses. One of his tricks to get a nice fluffy pancake is in the mixing process. You want to make sure that you don’t over mix your batter. It’s ok if there are still a few small clumps. There’s no need to have a super smooth batter. Let is rest for at least 10 minutes and then your good to go.
This recipe uses milk soured with some vinegar which is basically how I make my own buttermilk when I don’t have any. So you can use buttermilk if you have some or just follow the recipe instructions to make your own. It’s a great Easy Fluffy Pancake Recipe for you to use as a base to make all kinds of pancakes. Add blueberries, bananas, strawberries or your favorite fruit. Some grated lemon peel or orange peel will add a nice tangy citrus flavor. So get creative and have a little fun with your pancakes.
