You are a life saver, thank you for this comment ❤
Love you
Thanks so much for writing this
👍
Skipped video, just followed your info... boom! Bes' pan-flaps ever! Thank you 😊
I like alot of the popular cooks out there, but I always fall back to America's Test Kitchen recipes , over and over again. I absolutely love America's Test Kitchen. ATK forever!
The cheeky, "This serves 4 to 6 people HAHAHAHA" has me lmao
5:06 At our house we do both... We all sit down together at the table, but we put the griddle in the middle of the table. So it's a bit of a show. The first 3 people get a pair of pancakes and by the time the next 3 pair are off the griddle... people are ready for seconds! And everyone (including Mom) is in the conversation and ready to start the day! 💖🌞🌵😷
I love the banter. It feels so natural, I can only assume they're friends outside of work. They always seem so fun together.
The key to flipping pancakes is not to let them know you are scared. They can sense fear!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 brilliant I have to remember this...as my pancakes go wrong every time
😂
LOL
I’ll use that. My “goo” ends up everywhere. Sometimes the neighbors can’t figure out what’s all over their car.
is that it? they know my fear.. ugh!
Made my first homemade pancakes, using this recipe, this morning. Previously, I had only used pre-mixed batters. This recipe was everything the hosts said it was. Easy without requiring higher end tools such as electric mixers, and it turned out fluffy and tasty. Thank you.
My grandmother taught us to make a tiny test pancake. She also told us to leave lumps in the batter. I agree that it's nice to make them with a bit of vanilla. " Cultured" butter is delicious. Best new discovery for me in years regarding food
That laughter when they talk about the portion size... *chef’s kiss*
Patrick Taillon is
Thank you so much for this recipe!! I made this this morning and it’s very delicious ❤️❤️❤️
You have entice me to make pancakes for breakfast
I I'm now encouraged to make pancakes for breakfast
loved this...Ijust woke and wnhen I'm up I'll be making this recipe on this beautiful Sunday morning! Thanks TK for yet another great presentation!
I have NEVER tasted such amazing pancakes. I don't even eat them with syrup and my picky daughter doesnt either. I have already made this recipe about 6 times and they never get old. Thanks a million ! All the recipes Ive ever tried on this channel have been a game changer for me. Thanks ladies xoxo
@JakeFrom StateFarm You realize your sentiment also holds true for any and all comments, right?
Does it have a metallic taste from that amount of baking powder?
@@RochelletheRealtor I also raised an eyebrow at the amount of baking powder but no. Made these as per the recipe and they came out great 👍
@@RochelletheRealtor try it yourself and dont reply on other people's opinions. Simple as that. GRINS
@@richardewlliams9864
Maybe you meant *rely, to not rely on other people's opinions. As to the other commenter, some people don't want to waste the ingredients if the recipe turns out badly for others.
I grew up on a small Rhode Island farm and our pancakes had corn in them. Take a handful or two of fresh or frozen corn and mix it in the batter. Top your pancakes with butter and Vermont Maple Syrup. You won't be disappointed!
8:05 about corn meal
Sounds delicious! Thanks.
Here's a tip if you feel lazy in the morning: Mix the dry ingredients the night before and cover it. You'll have a lot less measuring in the morning. Just add the wet ingredients the next day. You can also substitute buttermilk for the milk in the recipe. Buttermilk adds great flavor to the pancakes or waffles.
pp
A bit of vinegar in milk is a good substitute for buttermilk
I love buttermilk pancakes. I use Aunt Jemima’s Buttermilk Complete. No planning necessary. I would try this recipe, though, measuring the dry ingredients the night before.
You would add a little more buttermilk than regular milk, up to about 1 cup of buttermilk replacing 3/4 cup of milk.
Buttermilk are my favorite 😍
I have watched these ladies as a child and these two are my favorites
..... Bridget...👏🏻💛.... Love her sense of humour, she's so witty and " sarcastic/ funny "... .. These two ladies have such good chemistry that plays off of one another, ... It's fun to watch, and the recipes are soooo good. ☺️
Agreed😉👍
Hello
Great video. No fluff - just straight to the recipe. Years ago when I used to go camping, I would bring the dry ingredients for my favourite pancakes pre-measured in a bag. Loved cooking them over a campfire.
Easiest Pancakes Ever - America’s Test Kitchen
Serves 4-6 people
Ingredients:
• 2 cups of all purpose flour
• 3 TBSP sugar
• 4 tsp baking powder aluminum-free (it’s double what you find in other recipes. It will make for tall fluffy pancakes)
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp baking soda (adds a bit tang and helps with browning)
• 2 large eggs
• ¼ vegetable oil
• 1-1/2 cups of whole milk
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
Notes: Use two separate bowls, one for dry and one for wet. Your bowl for the dry ingredients should be large enough for all ingredients and enough height to allow for mixing of all ingredients.
1. Whisk dry ingredients together until fully incorporated.
2. Lightly beat eggs and vegetable oil together.
3. Add milk and vanilla extract and lightly beat.
4. Add wet ingredients to dry and lightly whisk. A lumpy batter makes for a thicker batter, which makes for taller pancakes. You can make your batter thicker with less liquid, but that will make them dry - don’t do that.
5. Let rest for 10 minutes. You want to hydrate those lumps. Texture should be clumpy and thick.
6. Set a griddle to 350°F. You can use a non-stick pan and follow step 8 to check your pan’s temperature if you don’t have a tool to measure surface temp.
7. Pour ½ tsp oil on the surface of griddle/pan. Smooth out with a paper towel to make for a nice even, thin film across the surface. Puddles of oil will make for spotty pancakes.
8. Optional: You can test the heat of your grill by scooping 1 TBSP of batter onto the middle of the griddle/pan and cooking for 1 minute and flip. It should be a golden brown color.
9. Use a 1/4 -cup measuring cup to scoop your batter. Smooth out to a nice 4-inch round.
10. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on the first side. Bottom should be a nice golden brown.
11. Flip and cook for 1-2 minutes on the other side.
12. Follow step 7 for each new batch on the pan.
13. You can keep them warm until serving by placing them in a 200°F oven on a cookie sheet with a wire rack.
14. Serve with butter and your favorite syrup.
If you're using the RUclips app on a phone or tablet, you can copy the recipe by opening the video on your phone or tablet's browser (Safari or Chrome), opening comments and copying the text from there. Paste it into your favorite note taking app. I use Google Keep.

@@LivingsimplywithSofia You're welcome, Angel.
Thanks for your generosity. This’s really helpful.😊
@@sunsaneethavichaigarn1913 You're welcome, Sunsanee.
OH WOW !!!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING. THANKS THANKS THANKS
Made these pancakes this morning here in England - absolutely fabulous! They were light and fluffy, went down a treat. I didn't have any baking soda so used another half a teaspoon of baking powder instead. Thank you very much.
I am so happy that I found you women!!! I'm loving your videos and getting better in the kitchen - at age 75!!!
That is awesome. I am 74, owned my own restaurant and catering business, was a chef at a lodge entertaining very wealthy people, yet I still watch, learn and love America’s Test Kitchen!
Wow that's beautiful, but I must say that you ain't looking 75 but a still looking like sweet 16
You smile so beautiful,I hope that your the happiness remind forever
Pancakes good for
Breakfast
Smile and cheers
This chef woman is delightful. What wonderful energy and helpful enthusiastic teaching. Thank you
They are two of my favorite chefs, and, as usual, another fantastic recipe!!!
You know, when Chris left I thought this show had jumped the shark. I love the banter from you both and I'm now convinced it's better than ever. You share the spotlight in the different segments which is perfect. Thanks for bringing the show to youtube... love the new people - bringing Dan from out of the back room and Elle!
When he left he ran straight to product manufacturers of products they test and got his name slapped on their products.
The fact is his opinions can't be trusted. ATK is much better off without that idiot.
@@lordgarion514 yeah, he turned out to be a shady guy. I bet they're so glad he's gone.
I never did like him because he has such a snooty attitude and manner.
Chris who? I can’t picture him
Was he the guy with glasses & a bow tie??? I can’t seem to place him?? I just recently started watching again, about 3 months ago, after about 3 years.
Thank you Bridget and Julia. I just made these pancakes this morning. Perfect. I added blueberries as well.🫐🫐🫐💗🥞🥞🥞💗🫐🫐🫐
Perfect summer breakfast.
Love America's Test Kitchen 💗😊
It’s past 1am and this video just started playing and all my kids started craving pancakes after listening to your video on my iPad so I made them and they were the best we have ever ate. I can tell you I had to make an extra batch before they all went to bed and let me do my job. Thank you, now you have a subscriber for life. I was requested to test all your meals.
It’s crazy that I’m just now watching their channel when I literally watched this show every night growing up
This recipe is similar to my Grandma’s recipe that I use, which is from the 1953 Better Homes & Gardens cookbook, and is good, but these look so much better. Thanks, ATK, for another great recipe.
This looks AHMAZING! I've been searching for a pancake recipe to use and I finally found it! Thank you!!
Happened across this video on a Saturday morning, so delighted all ingredients are easy pantry staples. Now I’m a hero to the fam for making the easiest most delicious pancakes!
At 5:30, I was laughing also! I've been watching you both for years and still can't get enough!
I just love you both. The show is even better with your new format.
Wow!!! The best pancakes I ever had. I am making the pancakes along with, you so easy to make, no fuss, no mess. It is so nice to cook with you. Thank you America’s Test Kitchen.
Absolutely amazing!! Love this recipe, perfect Everytime! TankU guys
I have two of those electric griddles and I find they are slightly hotter at the plug end. Therefore, pour your FIRST pancakes at the cooler end, then at the plug end and you'll get more consistent results.
Thanks
Mine is cooler at the plug end. I always plop my first pancakes there so that they are on the griddle longer.
I use one of those griddle plates that go over the burners. After some trial and error, I found the perfect settings for each burner. Works great, easy to clean, just wipe down and re-season. 😎
I'm a waffles person..... Until these pancakes! These are so fluffy and tender. My husband adds fruit to the batter. One time we had almost brown bananas so we crushed them and added them to the batter. So good!!!
These ladies really make some great cooking hosts.
This recipe made the BEST pancake I ever prepared. The family raved! Thanks so much!
Thank you for the pancake flipping tips, and the idea of making the dry mixture ahead of time and storing it in a bag. I look forward to trying your recipe.
Yes, and writing what’s needed for the wet ingredients on the bag, too! Great tip!
Once you store the dry ingredients a few times you never need to write the wet ingredients because it becomes like riding a bike.
Made these pancakes tonight... delicious! They came out great; fluffy and just sweet enough. Thanks for this recipe!
🎉smart chefs. Exceptional entertainers! Thank you ladies.
I have been using an identical recipe for years except for the vanilla. I will add it next time. Thanks for the tip about beating/over beating. I bet my "same old" recipe is now new and much improved because of your help.
That looks good and easy. I can’t wait to see the recipe for the butter. I’m so happy to have found you on RUclips. I love watching you on tv. But, I don’t get to watch you all the time. So, this is wonderful. 😊💜
Happy cooking 👍🏼😊
Great tips and a great recipe! Thank you!
I've been watching test kitchen since the 90s (can't remember what year lol) and have stacks of your monthly magazines which are well worn. Thank you so much for one of the best cooking shows and possibly the best. Love love love the recipes and Julie and Bridget's no nonsense cooking styles.
Just made this recipe! Wow ! Incredible 😋thank you so much . 👍
Two of my favorite gals! Looking forward to trying this one. Thanks for sharing.
I love listening to you two! I come looking for your takes on recipes when I need them and you never disappoint. The recipes are approachable, the methods are straight forward and well demonstrated and you two are just a stitch to watch. I'm off now to make pancakes. Thanks again for doing these.
Agree!!! These pancakes are awesome!!👍
Love that you have frosted over the ingredients in your recipe link. That’s so helpful. Keep up the good work
Such a good recipe!! When I made them, my pancakes turned out so tall, tender and fluffy. Definitely advise you to rest your batter and avoid overmixing. As long as you don't this recipe is foolproof :) and so nice to not have to whip egg whites !!
You're absolutely right, never over mix, I let my mix rest for 10 minutes, that works for me just fine. 😎
Not that I ever did
Yaay! to that final sentence!
They look yummy I'm going to try these, thank you for the recipe, hugs
This is a great recipe, I've been making it for decades. I found it in my mother's Better Homes and Gardens cookbook from the 1950s. It's awesome, and just as easy as described here. :)
Made these yesterday and they were awesome. My new favorite pancake recipe. Can't wait to make it for company.
Made these today exactly as shown and they came out excellent! Thank You for this recipe!
That comment and laughter at 5:32 😂😂
Now see! This is one of those recipes where its so good one's eyes roll up into the back of one's head with the first bite. I confess to not using a griddle (don't have one) and trying to control the temperature in a non-stick skillet on an electric burner was tricky but that had no ill effect on the taste of these oh-so-dream-come-true pancakes.
Just tried these on Sunday. Best pancakes ever. Thank you!
Just made these and they are fantastic! Very thick, tall, fluffy and delicious!
Love these ladies.
Me, too. They seem so genuine.
Count ne to
GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES THEY ARE SWEETLY GORGEOUS BRIDGETTE IS HOT
I’m so glad someone wrote out the recipe and shared it.. thanks! Nothing is more frustrating than seeing “click here for recipe” and having to subscribe to get it😟
Yes exactly!!!!!!!
thanks for this great recipe. I'm going to try this on my Sunday menu breakfast. I will definitely consider watching more videos for you two ladies who are very inspiring to watch.
You ladies are awesome! And these pancakes are delish!!! Always a success!!! Thank you for all the yummy recipes!!!
I was given a HUGE COOKBOOK by my best friend at my wedding. I found the pancake recipe and they turned out even MORE fluffy than the boxed ones my mom made so I switched to making my own out of scratch. THIS was my recipe. I never bought the boxes. Nothing beats this recipe for making light, fluffy pancakes. But I like mine thick not flat like theirs.
Yes, and you still have to get out measuring cup to measure the box mix, so why not make these instead? Not that much extra to add. 😉
"In theory this recipe serves 4 - 6 people," as they both laugh - like that's gonna happen
Hey beautiful, I must say your smile is Worth a million diamond 💎
😂 yeah that was funny
@@mrsheatherteske lol she won't even day thank you
That was comedy gold😂😂😂
You can tell that from looking at them
Thank you for your cooking classes, sending hugs 🤗 from Florida 💕
Thank you dear Ladies! I am.sooo glad to find you both on You tube❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
The pancakes look delicious. Thank you for the recipe!
Hi from Kerala, India. Tried this today and it came out perfect. Thank you
Thank you for this!!!! My family loves these.
Love the well timed evil sarcastic laugh.
I turn the oven to 180-200 degrees. Put the plates in to get warm. Put a large piece of foil in the oven, and wrap the pancakes in it as they’re done to keep them hot until you’re done cooking. Then eat them from hot plates.
I use pure maple syrup, and heat it, too.
Home run recipe all the time. My family always says it’s the best pancakes they’ve ever had. We enjoy them with pure 100% CDN maple syrup of course.
Love your recipes ladies! I just made your cod veggie packets in foil and my husband and I enjoyed it very much. I enjoyed how easy it was to prepare and clean up! Thanks so much ...tomorrow I will try the 🥞 pancakes....I always make them from scratch but have never added baking soda ...also I never let the batter rest . However I do remember my mother telling me to barely mix the batter ! Many mom-memories in the kitchen ❤....now I shall pass this tip on to my daughter ! Thanks again : )
Thank you guys..you taught me sooo much about cooking and I really appreciate it❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
I add cinnamon to my pancake mix. It will turn the pancake a little brown as opposed to golden brown. Also for those of you who do not want to use regular sugar, try Monkfruit sugar. It is a sugar substitute that is the best by far.
The secret to Bob Evans pancakes is a hint of nutmeg in the batter.
I find Monkfruit is not as sweet as sugar. I have to use M ch more re to get the sweetness level up.
Try cardamon, too. Yum!
Why add sugar at all?
Also nutmeg & cardamon.
This is THE BEST recipe. I've been making them for 2 or 3 months when I saw the episode it was in and it's PERFECT.
I totally disagree
@@nathanfarias1051 They gave a recipe that works perfectly. What can you disagree on? It's not a complex dish that may taste different.
nahuel it dense spongey and saltyish no way they are the best
nahuel check out my critique it goes into it further
My family absolutely loved this recipe!😎👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I just made this today. It’s very good and naturally tasting yet fluffy! I did alter it a bit though. I didn’t put baking soda but a splash of vinegar, this also makes it quite fluffy. My favorite way of making pancakes actually. As leavener reacts with vinegar I can’t smell or taste vinegar. I had to add additional flour as it’s not so dry here right now. I put some organic blueberries in half and some milk chocolate chunks in another half and they came out quite tasty. I buy all natural pancake mix usually but this is better than the mix. Real maple syrup on chocolate ones and strawberry jam on blueberry ones, they’re very good. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
I was looking forward to see who can teach me to make the best pancakes and I see now that you are the Master. Hoping to see more recipes from you! 🥳
Look up the French toast recipe because it’s oven baked by a guest home chef.
Really good straight to the point effective teaching skills👌🏾
I love this recipe! Tastes way better than the box and so easy to get done while sipping my morning coffee 🤣😂
This recipe is going to be my go to for pancakes always. Thanks for the upload!
Thanks so much! The Pandemic has brought me back to the kitchen! I love all your recipes.👏🏼💕
Hello Mary
I worked for a man who's Mom, had her own recipe, and it includes all of your ingredients, but in place of the vegetable oil I use coconut oil, and then her recipe includes about a quarter cup of corn meal. The pancakes are delicious, and he loves dollar pancakes so that's what I always made. And if I was running late, I would use a popular mix, and add some corn meal to it. And another special touch is that I butter each pancake as they come off of the griddle pan. I get nine dollar size cakes. And he prefers clover honey instead of syrup. So that's what he got. Thank you.
Thanks for the share. When you add 1/4c corn meal, don't you need to increase the wet ingredients even slightly?
I would suggest nixing the coconut oil. It raises bad cholesterol.
You guys are beyond awesome!
Tips n tricks are just amazingg🥰how nicely she xplained every detail so carefully.....🤗
Made these this morning, my Wife even commented how light they were. Best pancake recipe I’ve ever used. Wife says this recipe is a keeper!
Those pancakes does look great and must be so delicious too and I love pancakes so much even though I don't cook them all the time at home.
Converted this recipe to an "instant mix" that I am quite happy with. Doubled the recipe, replaced "wet ingredients" with powdered eggs, buttermilk powder, & cut-in shortening, in place of the oil. So when preparing, only have to add water to cake batter consistency, & let sit 10 minutes, per your suggestion. Tried the mix out today, & they came out PERFECT!
Thanks for sharing a GOOD pancake recipe, as so often the pancake recipes I find online "fall flat", both literally & figuratively!
I didnt add vanilla, since I dont currently have any vanilla powder, so just leaving that as an optional add-in. I like my pancakes fine without vanilla anyhoo.
It looks delicious! Thanks for sharing.
I
LOve your mutual humorous remarks off side and on. I’m going to my kitchen now to make fluffy pancakes to have for this evening. Thank you.
Hello Roberta?
Well there used to be “where's the beef?” I ask where is the buttermilk? I love these two and I have learned much from them over these many years. And their collegiality is charming. Having treasured colleagues is what makes work enjoyable. I would add that room temperature milk and eggs for waffles/pancakes yield better results. Now with biscuits...cold, cold, cold.
Talking about the ingredients being cold You big dummy!…[Fred Sanford]…(waves fist in air)
@@pfcwar5150 that comedy is timeless.
@I HATE CHEESE when you make waffles, pancakes, or cakes you get maximum loft when ingredients are at room temp. Put your eggs in a warm tap water bath for 15 min. Pull butter out to soften. Milk with gentle microwave. Better to use lower power to prevent curdling. Biscuits on the other hand benefit from all ingredients being quite cold. It allows the mixture to bind crumbly and the water vapor from butter to release to provide optimal texture. No such thing as cold biscuits. If you make them right there are no leftovers
wooo looks yummy mouth is watering will try it myself Thank you for the Recipe.God Bless
So good! Thank you!
Thanks, especially the oil tip.
My favorite part 5:32 “this recipe in theory serves 4-6 people” both look at each other “BAHAHAHAHAHA!!”
Made this recipe just now. Delicious fluffy pancakes. Tip: make sure you don’t have any clumps in your baking powder before adding.
I got three servings for myself.
@@andreaandrea2000
Wisk your dry ingredients, works on the box mix.
Edit: It also works good on the recipe. I think the recipes' pancakes taste better than the box mix.
I'm some what of 4-6 people myself
I watch that part in 1.75x faster speed. it's more funny, try it!
Such a super simple and delicious recipe -- BEST pancakes EVER - -thank you
Just made the pancakes and we all love them. Thanks for the recipe.
Thank you, Im going to make the your pancake recipe on Saturday.
Just put this pancake recipe to the test this morning for the kids and hubby. Have to admit hands down that this is the best pancake recipe I have ever come across by far. They are the easiest, fluffiest and most delicious tasting pancakes ever, that when followed to a T come out perfect every time. My hubby thought that I had swapped my cooked pancakes out for already made bought ones from the store as the browning on the bottom and top came out beautifully golden and even over the whole pancake. Thanks for the tips and tricks and for a great tasting pancake. No wonder you are both good at your jobs!! I was thinking that maybe next time, I could swap out the oil for melted butter, and replace the milk with buttermilk. Plus you could add in some lemon zest and blueberries..... mmmm yum, the options are endless with this recipe. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
😅
Excellent...As always in anything you cook.
They look perfect and delicious!
Lately my family and I have been adding blueberries to the batter. Yum!
