It’s fall and everyone is raving about pumpkin everything. Not me! I’m raving about everything Apple.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips For Fluffy Apple Butter Pancakes

1. To make perfectly fluffy pancakes, you need to allow the batter it sit before cooking the pancakes. If the batter is too thin, you’ll have dry flat pancakes. I recommend mixing the batter and allowing it to sit on the counter for 5-10 minutes before you cook them.
2. I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the batter from the dish to the skillet. That way I get pancakes that are all the same size.
3. Cook the pancakes on medium-low to low temperature. A perfectly fluffy pancake needs time to cook all the way through. You’ll know they are ready to flip when you see large holes start to bubble. When you see a lot of holes, it’s time to flip.
4. I cooked these pancakes in batches of three at a time. I keep the cooked pancakes on an oven-safe plate in a 200° oven to keep them warm. If you don’t have an oven-safe plate or don’t know if your plates are oven-safe, you can use a cookie sheet or even just a large piece of aluminum foil.

Flipping Pancakes it’s an art…it’s all in the wrist

For years I shied away from making pancakes because I could never flip them without splashing them all over the pan. They say practice makes perfect but it’s you’re not flipping them correctly no amount of practice is going to help. The reason is the flipping is all in the wrist. Don use your arm to flip the pancakes, just twist your wrist and you will be amazed at how easy it is to flip pancakes…try it!
