Best Ever Pancakes

This is the best recipe for 2 reasons: 1- they are literally the best pancakes I've ever tasted and 2- the recipe gives you a reserve for 2 more batches! No more of this Bisquick stuff...I will never go back. EVER. It stops here. These are melt in your mouth, light as air, knock your socks off, the best pancakes ever. Just try them...you'll see. Just make them EXACTLY how the instructions say...trust me:)

Homemade Pancake Mix
6 cups flour
1 1/2 t baking soda
3 t baking powder
1 T kosher salt
3 T sugar

Combine all ingredients. Divide into 3 separate Ziploc bags for 3 different batches.

"Homemade Pancake Mix" Pancakes
2 eggs separated
2 cups buttermilk
4 T melted butter
2 cups Homemade Pancake Mix (or 1 Ziploc bag full)

Heat an electric griddle or frying pan to 350 degrees.

Whisk together the egg whites and the buttermilk in a small bowl. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the melted butter.

Combine the buttermilk mixture with the egg yolk mixture in a large mixing bowl and whisk together until thoroughly combined. Pour the liquid ingredients on top of the pancake mix. Using a whisk, mix the batter just enough to bring it together. Don't try to work all the lumps out.

Check to see that the griddle is hot by placing a few drops of water onto to the griddle. The griddle is ready if the water dances across the surface.

Gently ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle without spreading batter - just pour and leave alone. When bubbles begin to set around the edges of the pancake and the griddle-side of the cake is golden, gently flip the pancakes. Continue to cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the pancake is set and golden.

Serve immediately.

Makes 12 pancakes
