These pancakes are thick and fluffy, and the center stays moist and tender. After a lot of attempts to find a perfect pancake recipe, I made this one up, and have been so happy with the results!
06Whisk all the ingredients together until the batter is fairly smooth; there should only be a few small lumps.
07Melt enough butter in the bottom of a frying pan to coat it evenly; after it has melted, wipe out any excess with a paper towel or napkin.
08The pan should be over medium heat.
09Once the pan is heated, pour about 1/2 cup batter in (or, adjust to fit the size of the pan).
10Allow the pancake to cook several minutes, until the edges are cooked and there are bubbles appearing and bursting in the middle of the cake.
11Flip the pancake, and allow to cook about 2 minutes on the raw side.
12After a minute or two on this side, the cake will raise up and become thicker.
13Once this happens, only cook the cake another minute or so, until the pan-side is nicely golden.
14If the bottoms of the cakes are browning too fast, before there are bubbles in the middle or the second side can rise, then turn the heat down on the stove.
15If the opposite problem is occuring, increase the heat.
16After a couple, it'll be just right!
17This recipe makes 6 enormous pancakes; I would imagine that, made a more normal size, it would yield about 12.
