Yay. 60 year Australian grandma here. So good to know my perfect pancakes and the way I cook them match exactly those of an actual chef. Aren't my kids and grandkids lucky to have me 😃 🥞

Keep the batter nice and cold, helps to make them even fluffier. Former cracker barrel cook here, made literally thousands can confirm this makes a difference

Written recipe if anyone needs it! The Best Pancakes You Will Ever Make By Chef Frank Proto from Epicurious Dry Ingredients: 3 cups all purpose flour ¼ cup sugar 1 ½ tsp salt 1 tbsp baking powder 1 ½ tsp baking soda Wet Ingredients: 2 ¼ cups milk ¼ cup vegetable oil or any neutral oil 1 tbsp vanilla extract ¼ cup apple cider vinegar (I found regular white vinegar also works) 3 eggs Instructions: 1. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients until combined. 2. In another bowl, mix together the wet ingredients until combined. 3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Fold the ingredients with a rubber spatula until loosely combined (around 20-25 times). Lumps will form and that is ok. Do not overmix. 4. Heat up a griddle (or a frying pan on medium heat). Add a heaping dollop of salted whipped butter (I used regular butter) on the griddle until melted. Scoop the batter in a large spoon and drop them in the griddle. Do not stir the batter! 5. Flip the pancakes once the bubbles are popping through and the batter is slightly set. Do not push down the pancake with your spatula! The pancakes are done if the surface springs back when gently pushed down. 6. Serve pancakes with maple syrup and salted whipped butter.

Made them again this morning, a hit as usual. I love it because every person that has them has a question or comment about them. Thank you for this share.

My mom loves pancakes anytime of day so I made this recipe for her for dinner, hands down the best pancakes either of us have ever had. I'll never make them any other way. Thank you so much Frank, made my mom so happy. ❤

Chef Frank having a favorite spoon is incredibly relatable & validating LOL.

My Dad made the best pancakes we have ever eaten. Anything he made was in his head. I tried to match his but needed measurements, just did not happen. I have been on the hunt for a long time to find some that are remotely close to his. These cakes are as close as I am going to get, with a bit more of my homemade vanilla they will be spot on. We ate way to many, as we are unable to have the pleasure of indulging in Dads cakes again, it has been way to long. This means so much to us. Thank you :)

This is truly NEXT LEVEL. I've tried it several times. Foolproof coz it was perfect at my first try. & I'm an average cook. I ate it all. I never looked or even considered any other pancake recipe again. Thank you, Chef Proto & Epicurious!! 😘🤗

First video where the creator actually puts the measurements for every ingredient. Thank you. Something so simple many other people forget.

My wife is a pancake aficionado and she said these are hands down the best pancakes she’s ever eaten. Thank you! This recipe made our Mother’s Day! ❤

Don’t usually comment on videos but I used this recipe and make the best pancakes I’ve ever had in my life. Was full after 1.5 pancakes and had breakfast for myself and flatmates for the following morning. This is all I have to say. Thank you.

APF 3 cups 1/4 cup sugar 1 1/2 tsp salt 1 tbsp baking powder 1 1/2 tsp baking soda 2 1/4 cups milk 1/4 cup veg oil 1 tbsp vanilla extract 1/4 cup ACV 3 eggs For my own and your convenience 😂

Oh wow, I'm gonna make THIS recipe today! I really like how he explained how to serve them too 😊

I made these with some caramelized bananas and Frank didn't lie, they were indeed the absolute best pancakes I've ever had!

I can't wait to try this. I love butter on every layer. My husband ask if I like pancakes with my butter. I use honey on my pancakes since we raise honey bees. Happy holidays.

I have been eating pancakes made with Bisquick for 35 years and cooking them on a cast iron skillet. The ingredients are the same with adding baking powder and lemon juice create the chemical reaction in the batter that makes them light and fluffy. I’m gonna try this recipe the next time I make pancakes 😊
