1. Choose Quality Ingredients

Start with fresh flour, baking powder, eggs, and buttermilk for the best results. Using high-quality ingredients makes a noticeable difference in the texture and flavor of your pancakes.

2. Don't Overmix the Batter

Gently mix the wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Overmixing can lead to tough pancakes. A few lumps in the batter are okay; they'll disappear during cooking.

3. Allow Proper Resting Time

Let the batter rest for about 10-15 minutes before cooking. This allows the flour to fully hydrate and results in lighter, fluffier pancakes.

4. Get the Right Cooking Temperature

Preheat your griddle or pan over medium heat. Test the temperature by sprinkling a few drops of water – they should sizzle and evaporate. Too high heat can lead to unevenly cooked pancakes.
