  1. What a great recipe! I saw that some reviewers thought it was too doughy and not fluffy. Make sure to leave lumps in the batter. Also, I found no need to grease the pan because there was already melted butter in the batter. This is definitely my go-to recipe for pancakes!
     
  2. Wonderful Pancakes! Served them with strawberry compote and whipping cream to my family of 5 and there were no leftovers! Next time I will double the recipe. Thanks!

  5. I'm sorry, but these pancakes were not light and fluffy to me. I agree that they tasted a little doughy. I did try adding 1 teaspoon of vanilla after I tasted the original recipe and it helped the flavor.
