These perfect homemade pancakes are soft, fluffy, and golden-brown every time. Made with simple pantry staples and a quick batter, they’re ideal for cozy breakfasts or leisurely weekend brunches.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8–12 pancakes

Ingredients

  • 300 g all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 60 g sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Milk or water (enough to achieve pourable batter consistency)
  • Butter or oil, for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk into the dry mixture with milk or water until just combined (batter may be slightly lumpy).
  3. Let the batter rest for 10–20 minutes while preheating a griddle or skillet over medium heat.
  4. Lightly brush the hot surface with butter or oil.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges begin to set, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  7. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with desired toppings.

Notes

  • Add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
  • Swap in whole wheat or oat flour for a healthier twist.
  • Mix in blueberries, chocolate chips, or mashed banana for variety.
  • Use plant-based milk and oil for a dairy-free version.
  • Store pancakes with parchment between layers to prevent sticking.
