Wet ingredients:
  • 240 ml (1 cup) milk
  • ½ cup plain yogurt or buttermilk
  • 2 medium eggs
For cooking:
  • 60 grams (4 tablespoons) melted butter
  • 2-3 tablespoons corn or canola oil
Instructions:
  1. In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.
  2. In a separate bowl, lightly mix the wet ingredients.
  3. Gradually blend the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring briefly. Use a hand mixer if available for a lump-free batter. Avoid overmixing to prevent the batter from becoming too elastic.
  4. Let the batter rest for at least 10 minutes to allow it to thicken and start to rise.
  5. Heat two medium skillets or one heavy-duty skillet over medium heat, dividing the butter and oil between them.
  6. Pour one full cup of batter into the skillet and gently tilt to spread evenly. Use a spatula to assist if needed.
  7. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip. The second side will cook quickly, in about 30 seconds, until golden brown.
  8. Stack cooked pancakes on a serving plate, covering them to retain warmth.
  9. Serve warm, optionally with syrup, fruit, or toppings of choice.
