How to Make Club Soda Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix!
  4. Slowly stir in the club soda until just incorporated. A few lumps are okay.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  7. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like butter, syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy!
  9. Optional: Freeze cooked pancakes for later use. Reheat in a toaster or microwave.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
