Perfect Pancakes

October 26, 2016 by Amber 7 Comments

This classic recipe for Perfect Pancakes has flour, sugar, egg, baking powder, salt, butter, milk and a bit of cinnamon. 

Weekend mornings should always start with a good hearty breakfast. Pancakes is one of my families favorites! Honestly, my kids would eat these everyday for breakfast, lunch AND dinner without complaints. Pancakes are a fantastic breakfast option because they are easy, affordable and there are so many variations possible to mix it up. 

Perfect Pancakes

These simple Perfect Pancakes have a fluffy texture with a buttery sweet flavor. The hint of cinnamon tastes great with a little extra butter on top and a drizzle of sweet maple syrup. Every morning should start this good!

Tips & Tricks

Mix It Up

This pancake batter can be altered with all sorts of additions. Add a little lemon juice or vanilla extract to the batter. Try mixing the batter with mini chocolate chips, freshly diced strawberries or any fruit you like, chunks of crispy bacon or whatever you wish. Don’t be afraid to use this recipe as a base to be creative with breakfast. A favorite mix up of ours is to spread peanut butter between the pancakes and pour loads of maple syrup on top of the stack. What a treat!! 

Freeze

Pancakes can be made in large batches and placed in the freezer for later. To freeze, let the fully cooked pancakes cool and then place onto a baking sheet and into the freezer for 30 minutes. Once frozen, transfer into a freezer bag. Keep frozen for up to two months. To reheat, place 4-5 frozen pancakes on a microwavable safe plate and reheat for one minute or until thoroughly warmed.
