- Yield 18 to 24 3-inch pancakes
- Ready in 25 minutes
- Prep 15 minutes
- Cook 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour ( for whole wheat flour)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups sour cream
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 3 large eggs (150 g out of shell)
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, milk, eggs and butter.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix with a spoon or spatula until just combined. The batter will be lumpy and it's ok if there are even a few streaks of flour here and there. Don't overmix! The key to light and fluffy pancakes is mixing just until combined.
- Let the batter rest while prepping the griddle.
- Heat a nonstick griddle to medium for 1-2 minutes until a drop of water sizzles (about 300 degrees F on my griddle, but every griddle will be a bit different).
- Pour batter into rounds on the preheated griddle (I use my #20 cookie scoop to portion out the batter which holds about 3-4 tablespoons).
- Cook until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges are set, 1-3 minutes, depending on the heat of the griddle.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another minute or so until golden and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve immediately or keep warm in a 175 degree F oven for 15-20 minutes.
Give it a minute off the heat, then serve it while it is still hot.
