Also the fat

Using butter is different than oil

[@imnotasher4892]

I prefer oil

I actually didn't even know this was 8 years old!

2009 already had 720p...

[@jennifer15497]

I found that adding a tad more water to the batter helps and using really low heat throughout the whole process helps.

[@graciethompson5516]

Thank you for making it in real time! I get very impatient w/ pancakes. This video has helped me!😊

[@mikeb.6735]

My son-in-law makes incredible pancakes. I finally got his secret. He adds vanilla extract to the mix. It's hard to believe how much that affects the flavor! Try it on some of your new batches...

[@coressence]

i always like to add a little vanilla extract to some of my recipes, it just adds that little extra flavor

I always add..it's not new

the fact that hes like. talking about how many ppl dont know how to make em, but not in a rude way, and hes all calm talkin about his advice, is whats keepin me interested. thank u dude i have NEVER been told these things about makin pancakes😭

[@lugeo]

Step 1. Use the right equipment. You need a high, even heat and a thick metal. Step 2. Don't way too long to flip the pancake. Each side should be cooked approximately 55% (first side) and 45% (second side). You have here cooked the pancake entirely on its first side. By 3:30 its dried out. And then youre just browning the other side for a bit. @1:40 you can see the edges of the pancake are starting to take on a shiny jelly-like appearance. But then from then on the colour starts to fade and the top of the pancake is losing its shine Turn the pancake before it starts to dry out and observe the colour of the bottom side of the cake. Is it too light (a light golden brown is too light) or too dark (dark brown like well done toast), then the heat source for the hotplate needs to be adjusted. Step 3. Leave to cook on second side until colour on both sides match. But it is acceptable for second side to be tad lighter than first side. Make a crack in the bottom of the pancake, using a spatula or other implemenet, and observe whether or not theyre is still wet mixture inside. Should take about 2 minutes tops to cook a pancake.

[@ravishankark4453]

is it on medium heat or high heat

[@whoasked409]

You do not need thick metal...

[@chimeneyt]

@@Mike-sp4iz hi i'm having the same troubles, have u found any solution?

[@chimeneyt]

@@Mike-sp4iz yeah I think you're right, I just made some pancakes and they came out well cooked but with a gummy flavor, I must have screwed up on the measurements

[@snackcakeman]

Based upon your 2 minute tops theory, the ones shown would be like leather. He didn’t flip until over 2.5 minutes.

[@AustinsLookingAtYou]

Thank you friend, I'm so happy that I can learn from this.

I can make pancakes taste perfect, but the problem I have is trying to get it golden. Anyone else have the same problem?

[@lailaabdi7467]

Me me me🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

[@lezzielohan]

Wait until it looks kinda think on the sides and has bubbles on them. Or just flip them early and than cook the other side till golden

[@thelegend2122]

Try lowering the heat

[@rodorito5289]

Get golden spray paint and put it on it

[@pancakes7900]

When I flip them it loses its shape Althought there are LOTS of bubble and it became Golden from underground

[@Ben-Thomas]

Thank you! I've been trying to find a real-time video that actually shows what the pancake should look like before I turn them over and not just a cooking time estimate. You have helped us heaps!

[@derekjaydjchinatown]

thanks for the video. I never know when to flip them. You made it easy.

Pancakes were the first food I've ever cooked! Maybe when I was about 9? They were really nice too! I kinda just winged it and watched my grandma every time she made them.

I suck at cooking. I can make mac n cheese, eggs, ramen. REALLY basic stuff. But when I flip a pancake, it turns into a mound cake lol I really needed this video, thanks! ^^

Hi If made a banana oat pan cake, is there any way to have the nice brown well spread smooth color like yours? My pancake color is with ugly dot brown patches not consistend colour.

[@tomstestkitchen]

That's probably from the bananas, maybe mix in a little lemon juice with the bananas, that's how I make banana bread and it doesn't come out so dark.

[@mserased]

Mine never ever come out that pretty

If you end up disappointed with a "Just add Water" box of pancake mix because your pancakes end up raw in the center, no matter how long you leave it on the stove, I have a couple of tips that fixed that. I tried so many tips such as flipping only once, letting the batter rest, using oil instead of butter to cook it on the pan, and they still were raw in the center. But this time I added a little bit of baking powder (the box said it had some baking soda, but maybe not enough) and an egg to my mix. I didn't over mix the batter, I let it rest a little before cooking them, and my pancakes turned out fine! I guess some mixes just need little adjustments.

[@rhett6166]

Your pancakes look lovely. I followed the directions for Aunt Jemima's formula, with what was in the box but milk instead of water & an egg because I wanted a thicker pancaked. I added 2 peached diced up. Then I cooked them on low for less than a minute & they burned. I would leave photos here if I could. I hate throwing out food and these taste awful.
