- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter. Pour about ¼ cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
- Allow the pancakes to cook for about 3 to 4 minutes or until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set.
- Gently flip the pancakes and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes or until both sides are golden brown and fully cooked.
- Once done transfer the pancakes to a plate and serve them warm with a drizzle of honey some chopped fresh fruits or even whipped cream for an indulgent twist.
