Fluffy Pancakes

Fluffy pancakes are thick, soft, and golden-brown stacks made from a batter of flour, eggs, milk, and baking powder. The batter is gently mixed and cooked on a griddle or skillet until bubbles form and edges turn crisp, resulting in a light and airy texture with a slightly crisp exterior.
