Perfect for a weekend morning or any day you want to treat yourself, these pancakes are fluffy, light, and incredibly easy to make.

Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Gather all your ingredients and equipment needed, including a large mixing bowl, whisk, measuring cups, and a non-stick frying pan or griddle.
2. Mix the Wet Ingredients:
- Crack the 2 large eggs into the large mixing bowl.
- Beat the eggs lightly with the whisk until they are well combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, combine the 2 cups of self-raising flour and 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Stir them together to ensure the baking soda is evenly distributed.
4. Add Dry Ingredients to Wet Ingredients:
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the eggs, whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
5. Incorporate the Milk:
- Slowly add the 1.5 cups of milk into the mixture, whisking until you have a smooth batter. The batter should be thick but pourable. If it's too thin, sprinkle in a bit more flour; if it's too thick, add a splash more milk.
6. Rest the Batter (Optional):
- Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes. This helps the baking soda activate and results in fluffier pancakes.
7. Preheat the Pan:
- Preheat your non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of oil or butter if necessary.
8. Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden brown, an additional 1-2 minutes.
9. Serve:
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, nuts, or a dollop of yogurt.
10. Enjoy:
- Delight in your delicious homemade breakfast pancake stack!
Tips:
- For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for about 10 minutes before cooking.
- Use a non-stick pan or griddle to reduce the amount of butter or oil needed for cooking.
- Make sure your griddle or pan is preheated to medium heat before pouring the batter. This ensures even cooking and nicely browned pancakes.
- To test if the pancake is ready to flip, look for bubbles forming on the surface and the edges starting to set.
- If you prefer thicker pancakes, reduce the amount of milk slightly. For thinner pancakes, add a bit more milk.
There you have it—an easy and delicious Breakfast Pancake Stack that is sure to satisfy. Whether you prefer them with maple syrup, fresh berries, or a pat of butter, these pancakes are versatile and can be customized to your liking. Enjoy your homemade breakfast and start your day right!
