Heat the Skillet: Place a 12-inch skillet over medium heat and allow it to get hot. You can test if it’s ready by sprinkling a few drops of water onto the surface – if they sizzle and evaporate, it’s good to go.
Cook the Pancakes: Once the skillet is hot, pour a thin layer of batter onto the pan, tilting it to spread the batter evenly and cover the bottom. Cook until the edges start to brown and bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip and Cook: Carefully flip the pancake using a spatula and cook the other side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes more.
Serve: Once cooked, remove the pancakes from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Now comes the fun part – topping your pancakes! You can spread your favorite jam or jelly on them, roll them up, drizzle with real maple syrup, or dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Enjoy: Serve the pancakes warm and enjoy a delicious and satisfying breakfast that’s sure to please everyone at the table.
