Ensure your baking powder is fresh and active for pancakes that rise beautifully.
Mix ingredients until just combined; lumps are okay. Overmixing makes pancakes dense.
Resting for 5–10 minutes lets the baking powder activate, resulting in fluffy pancakes.
Acidic ingredients like buttermilk or yogurt react with baking soda, creating airiness.
Heat the pan evenly to avoid burning while allowing the pancakes to cook through.
Flip when bubbles form and edges set, ensuring an even, fluffy texture.
Place cooked pancakes in a warm oven while finishing the rest to retain fluffiness.
