Cook the pancakes
Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Grease lightly with butter or cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and bubbles form on the surface.

Tips
Let the batter sit for a few minutes
Letting the batter sit for a few minutes before cooking will help the pancakes become more fluffy.
Don’t over mix
Overmixing the batter can lead to tough pancakes.
Cook over medium heat
Cooking the pancakes over medium heat will ensure that they cook evenly and don’t burn.
Serve immediately
Pancakes are best served hot and fresh.
