classic and easy fluffy pancake recipe

Jump to Recipe

A fantastic classic and easy fluffy pancake recipe for the perfect Sunday breakfast or brunch.

A few recipes should be on everyone’s list; one of those recipes is this classic and easy pancake recipe. They are all-rounders! You can have them on a normal work day because you are simply in the mood for pancakes, on weekends to make your weekends special, or on family brunches; there is no rule on when to make pancakes, and this is good.

ingredients for the basic pancakes

Flour.
All-purpose flour is what I always use for pancakes.
Buttermilk.
Is the perfect choice instead of regular milk.
Eggs.
Organic medium size eggs.
Vanilla extract.
High quality organic vanilla extract. My favorite vanilla extract for recipes like this one is Dominican vanilla extract.
Salt.
A pinch of salt will be enough.
Sugar.
Just some tablespoons for a slightly sweet touch.
Butter.
This is optional, if you aren’t using a nonstick pan you will need some kind of oil/fat so the pancakes don’t stick to the pan.

how to store the pancakes

The fluffy pancakes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature overnight, in the fridge for five days, or in the freezer for a couple of months.
You can meal-prep the pancakes and deep freeze them as soon as they cool off.

how to reheat leftover pancakes

If the pancakes are in the fridge, preheat them in the microwave or a pan on the stove. But be careful as you want them to get warm and not cooked again.
If the pancakes are frozen, they will turn out perfect if you reheat them in the toaster.

how to serve pancakes

The pancakes can be served with your favorite fruits and maple syrup. My favorite combinations are:

Berries- strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, and blackberry.

Ripe Mango

Banana and peanut butter.

Apple, pear, and cinnamon.

Kiwi and red grapes.

any tips?

Don’t stir the batter too much. Just whisk the batter until the ingredients are well combined.
Use buttermilk instead of milk.
Let the batter rest for about 15 minutes - this works wonderfully.
When making the pancakes, don’t let the pancake cook too long on the downside. You want the batter to work for you; that’s why you need to flip the pancake as soon as the first bubbles form.
