Everybody loves pancakes. Even those who hate breakfast and never eat breakfast, they still love pancakes. Why? Simply because they are delicious. You can be everyone’s favorite person if you know how to make the most delicious pancakes they have ever tasted.

You first need a recipe. Look for basic plain recipe or you can go nuts and get something creative like chocolate chip or sour cream pancakes. Look on the net or in your favorite cookbook for a basic recipe.

Start by measuring out all the dry ingredients. Follow the recipe exactly. Measure out the ingredients correctly and accurately and sift and stir as directed. You don’t want mistakes because they will mess up your pancakes. Mix these dry ingredients together.

Next measure all the wet ingredients such as the eggs, oil, water, etc. Again, make sure you measure them out correctly. Don’t miss anything and be as accurate as possible. Mix them all together well without over-beating.

Now mix together the wet and dry ingredients. Mix them thoroughly but do not over-beat it. If you beat it too much the pancakes will become tough. It’s okay if there are a few lumps, but just make sure there aren’t too many.

Heat up the pan or griddle to about medium high heat. Lightly grease the pan with butter, oil, or cooking spray. Ladle the batter on the griddle or pan making the pancakes whatever size you’d like. Try to space them about 2 inches apart. Flip them over after a minute and after tiny bubbles form across the top, and then cook for another minute or so.

When they are finished the pancakes should be a nice and golden brown on each side. Serve them war with syrup and butter or use another topping such as berries and whipped cream.
