When my children and grandchildren were young, we used to get together for a pancake supper. They used to love these pancakes and asked for them often. These pancakes come out light and fluffy and are a big hit every time. Hope y'all enjoy!

How To Make grandma's light and fluffy pancakes

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, beat eggs on high speed 5 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. Stir in remaining ingredients (use a wooden spoon or spatula, not a mixer).

Step 2

Pour batter from 1/4 cup measuring cup onto a medium-hot, lightly greased griddle. Bake until puffed and bubbles begin to break. Turn and bake other side until golden brown. Makes 12 to 14 pancakes.
Step 3

Serve hot with your favorite kinds of syrup and/or toppings. You may also stir in blueberries, chocolate chips or nuts to the batter before cooking.
