Perfect Pancakes - A secret ingredient in these pancakes makes them super thick and fluffy. They are melt-in-your-mouth delicious cakes the entire family will enjoy!So, a little fun trivia about my blog. This is the FIRST breakfast recipe I’ve ever posted. Crazy, right? I think the reason why is because in addition to blogging, I work full time. I’m often creating my recipes in the late afternoon or evening because I’m working during the day. Pancakes, however, are a perfect meal choice for breakfast, lunch or dinner. In fact, our family has them quite often on weeknights because they’re quick, easy and incredibly delicious!!

Perfect Pancakes - A secret ingredient in these pancakes makes them super thick and fluffy. They are melt-in-your-mouth delicious cakes the entire family will enjoy!

If you’ve spent a little time around the blog, you’ll know that I’m all about smart shortcuts. I’m not ashamed to use cake mix from a box or use creamed soups from cans. As long as I’m creating something delicious my family can enjoy, it’s all good. With pancakes, however, I whistle a bit of a different tune.

I’ve had pancakes from a box, the freezer section and I’ve made them from scratch. Homemade Perfect Pancakes are by far the most delicious. The pancake recipe I’m sharing today is tried and true.

It includes a bit of a secret ingredient that produces the thickest, fluffiest pancakes you’ve ever had. Any ideas? I won’t keep you in suspense. It’s vinegar. Have you ever had pancakes with vinegar in them? No? Well, you must, because that’s the secret to the thickness. So, you’re wondering, can you taste the vinegar? NOT AT ALL. You won’t even taste a trace in the pancakes. Magic? Maybe.

The vinegar is mixed with milk to create a mixture similar to buttermilk. I mean, just take a look at this stack of perfection. Holy moly. I fit that whole forkful in my mouth. I did. TMI, I know.

So, it’s settled then, you’re going to try these, right? I guarantee that your family will love them as much as we do. Get that syrup ready because these babies are so thick and fluffy they’ll be able to soak that syrup up by the spoonful. YUM!!
