Tall fluffy pancakes…

are actually attainable at home. I never thought this would be possible as I’ve been endlessly searching for the combination of ingredients or procedure that would take my pancakes out of their lifeless misery.

• 3/4 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons white vinegar
• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 egg

Procedure:

1. Put vinegar in milk and let sit for 5 minutes to sour.
2. In the meantime, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
3. Add melted butter and egg to milk and whisk.
4. Add this mixture to the flour mixture and combine with whisk.
5. Heat pan (medium high heat) and place a tablespoon of melted butter or cooking spray. Pour a small scoopful of batter. Leave 1-2 min and flip once. Cook on other side for same amount of time.
