Top Tips!

Measure your flour thoroughly! A little too much and a little too little will not do in this recipe. The pancakes will either be too dry or too moist; hence it is best to add the exact amount of flour for the batter mixture.
Excess use of egg will result in a pancake that is dense and custard-like; the insufficient egg will result in a pancake that is dry and biscuit-like. Use just enough to make a perfect pile of pancakes.
It is not only the egg and flour you should be mindful about. Butter contains fat, and too much fat in the butter mixture will make your pancakes too dense and heavy, yet too little fat will make them dry and almost crispy. The key to perfection is precise measures.
Use a non-stick pan in cooking your pancake batter.
Take note! A pancake made with baking powder will be highly puffy and have a gritty taste, while a pancake made without baking powder would be flat and limp. So, baking powder is necessary for this recipe.
If you have a sweet tooth, you can add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
