"I've been perfecting my Pancake recipe over the years and I finally did it! These pancakes are super fluffy and delicious. My family was truly impressed. Makes about 12 - 6"diameter pancakes. I use non-stick spray on my griddle but you can use butter."

This was truly a fluffy pancake! I have cut the ingredients in half to make less and also have substituted 1 cup yogurt, 1 cup of milk, and 1 tsp lemon juice for the buttermilk. They are delicious.
