For someone who takes a lot of pride in her baking skills (that only picked up during lockdown), I have to admit that my first few attempts at making pancakes were a total disaster. I would wreck the batter completely. It would either be too thick or thin and never perfect, then when I got the batter somewhat correct, may pan was not adequately greased. And when I tried adding heaps of butter to the pan, the batter would start to swim in the pan and end up being a weird crepe no one asked for. To cut the long story short, making pancakes is an ‘easy’ affair, only if you know the right recipe, tips and tricks.
Some Tips To Keep In Mind:
- Mix the batter, make sure there are no lumps.
- Do not overmix, this would lead to a lot of aur entering the batter, it could also lead to harder pancakes.
- Make sure you rest the batter for 15-30 minutes.
- Baking powder helps pancake rise, but too much of it could lead to tighter pancakes.
- Mix in the egg whites later, this will help you fold the pancake batter better, and lead to very fluffy pancakes.
In case you have no patience for separating the whites from the yolks and mixing and waiting. Then here’s an easy, 2-ingredient recipe of Banana pancake that you will thank us for life.
