The Key to Fluffy Pancakes
Egg Whites – make sure to whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This is very important! Don’t overmix – gently fold the egg whites into the pancake batter so that they don’t lose their air bubbles. Make sure not to vigorously mix. Baking powder is key: this recipe calls for 3 teaspoons of baking powder. Yes, 3! We’ve tested this multiple times. Just trust us! Cook pancakes immediately: once your batter is ready, make sure to cook the pancakes immediately. If you let the batter sit, the baking powder will deactivate and your pancakes won’t be as fluffy.
Simple Ingredients
Flour: we kept things simple with this recipe and used regular old flour. We have not tested this with any other flour, but are confident that white whole wheat would work too.Baking powder: this recipe calls for 3 teaspoons of baking powder. It will activate immediately and make your batter nice and bubbly.Butter: we thought we’d take the flavor up a notch and use brown butter! It’s easy to make and really makes these pancakes.Eggs: in the directions you’ll see we have you separating the egg whites from the yolks. It’s important not to skip this part and to make sure to whisk the whites to stiff peaks.Brown sugar: a little bit of brown sugar helps bring out the brown butter.Almond milk: any kind of milk will work for this, but we prefer almond milk.
