    I love how your whole point is how simple pancake batter is, but you missed one of the defining ingredients. Yeah, that’s exactly why pancake mix is a thing. Also, don’t use eggs in your pancakes. That’s for waffles.

      Au contraire on the eggs, my friend. Some of the best pancake recipes call for whipped egg whites—it makes them nice and fluffy. But it also takes a good bit of effort, so another +1 to instant mix when you’re tired lol

          This recipe used the whole egg and IMO the pancakes are fantastic. Makes about 6 thicc and fluffy pancakes (10cm diameter)

          Separate 4 eggs

          Add 30g sugar to the whites, whip into foam.

          Add a pinch of salt, a bit of vanilla extract and about 80ml milk to the yolks and mix everything on high speed. Add 100g flour and some baking soda, mix on low speed.

          Fold in the egg white foam, bake in a pan with some butter on low to medium heat for 3ish minutes each side. (Keep them warm in the oven at 80-100°C until you’ve finished making all of them to serve them nice and hot)

      Are you American potentially? Because I am completely correct on how to make pancakes but I have seen in films that American pancakes seem to be very tall and thick, not like British pancakes that my batter is for

        ah, yeap. I wouldn’t even really call the british version the same thing. Two countries divided by a common language.
