Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 15.25 oz. box cake mix (flavor of your choice)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- Butter or cooking oil (for griddle)
- Frosting (optional for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, whole milk, and eggs. Stir gently until just combined, ensuring not to over-mix; a few small lumps in the batter are fine and will help keep the pancakes fluffy.
- Heat the Griddle: Preheat a large griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with butter or cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook for approximately 2 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface. Flip the pancake carefully and cook for an additional 1 minute or until the underside is lightly golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm, topped with optional frosting, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings for added sweetness and flavor.
Notes
- Do not over-mix the batter to keep the pancakes tender and fluffy.
- Use different cake mix flavors to create fun variations.
- Butter or oil the griddle lightly to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
- Optional toppings such as frosting or syrup add sweetness, but you can also try fresh fruits or nuts for variety.
- Adjust cooking time slightly based on the thickness of your pancakes and griddle heat.
