2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Scoop 1/3 cup of the batter for each pancake. Flip when the bubbles are covering the surface. Cook the other side until it is golden.

Instructions for Preparing Amazing Pancakes

There is no one, definitive rule for perfecting pancakes; however, chefs suggest several broad guidelines:

• Permit your batter to rest for a minimum of 30 minutes prior to frying.

• Avoid overmixing the mixture, since this may result in rubbery pancakes.

• The essential inquiry: when to commence flipping? Observe for bubbles or elevate the base to ascertain if it is golden.
