I found a 300 ml pottle of milk just right with these ingredients, making a perfect stock base for differing styles, – bacon & maple syrup, blueberries &/or bananas with maple syrup, spicy mexican beans with sour cream, or as a batter for bread fritters with tomato relish….
This has got to be the best ingredients I have come across, for a long time I’ve always tried to make them thick. I will be using this recipe from now on. Thank you for sharing 🙂 that’s a winner and my kids enjoyed it too.
So you have kids 😏
Add extra milk, sugar and vanilla essence then eat with just butter on top it tastes like warm vanilla cupcakes or vanilla cake so delicious
OMG these pancakes are amazing first time with this recipe and i will stick with it forever!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is epic the best pancakes yet I’ve made easy and yummy munch munch. 👍😎😎
Can’t wait to try these have tried quite a few pancake recipes over time, and while they are ok, this one looks really good, so am keen to try. Thanks for this. I’m talking about the one at the top, not the one someone posted halfway down the page, which sorry but I found bit rude. Why not start your own page, not try to get in on someone else. Just my opinion, everyone else might be quite happy,with that, I just find it bit rude. Anyway looking forward to trying the top of the page recipe, and my son can’t wait to try them. Many thanks for posting it.
What do you use instead of the baking powder?
Pancake mix
Also to add to my first comment, I use a flat sandwich press to cook them, and each pancake I use a 1/4 cup as a scoop and it makes about 8.
I would only do this if you need a yummy meal in quicker time. My friend uses a sandwich press and it pushes out most of the fluffyness of the pancake. If you have the time, definitely avoid the sandwich press.
In a hurry, the pancakes are still pretty good.
We found this recipe during lock down and its the best recipe. We have enjoyed pancakes almost everyday since. I also used it (without sugar) to make corn fritters.
Awesome, yep just added little more milk , this made 5 for us but I made them size of the pan , big pancakes we had maple syrup and Banana then rolled up and ate, yummy as

I tried this recipe and half way through I realised I didn’t have any eggs so I added 1/4 cup of apple sauce to substitute and it worked fine, I also only put half a tablespoon of baking powder in a small I was to scared to do too much and it also worked fine. They turned out very fluffy and delicious 5/5 recommend
I have made this recipe heaps and have been amazed. Works every time. Although we add more milk to make them thinner.

I was scared to put in one table spoon of BP so just did 1 tsp. Really great pancakes though
