Old-Fashioned Pancakes

Sundays in my house are pancake day, so I have tried various recipes. This is hands down the best pancake recipe I have ever made. It makes the most delicious and fluffiest pancakes. I use it as a base and add different things every time.

It’s a classic pancake recipe that you can upgrade by adding things like chocolate chips, chopped fruit, different flavored extracts, or anything you can imagine.

This is a recipe you want to save for all eternity and pass down to your children and grandchildren. On Sundays, I make a big batch and freeze some of the pancakes to eat throughout the week.

How To Make Homemade Pancakes From Scratch?

Have all your ingredients ready, and take out a sieve and a medium-sized bowl.

1. Using a sieve or a sifter, sift the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar into the bowl.
2. After all the dry ingredients are sifted, you will add the wet ingredients. Mix in the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract using a whisk. Mix until combined and smooth
3. Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Spray it with butter-flavored cooking spray, and add about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
4. Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the top.
5. Flip them over and cook them for about one minute on the other side. Serve them while hot.

Freeze Pancakes For Later:

To freeze the pancakes, make sure they are cold first. Do not attempt to freeze hot pancakes, or they will stick together.

After they have completely cooled off, place them into a freezer bag with a square of wax paper in between each one of them, so it is easier to take them out one by one. You can freeze them for up to 4 months.

To reheat, take as many as you need out of the freezer and reheat in the microwave until hot. You can also reheat them in a toaster.

Cooking Tips:

1. Remember to let the batter rest for a bit. This gives the baking powder time to react and produce the fluffiest pancakes.
2. If you want to add chocolate chips, add them directly to the batter.
3. Cook your pancakes over medium heat. If you cook them over high heat, they will burn on the bottom before cooking in the middle.
