- In another skillet heated over medium-high heat, add a little butter. Scoop 2 generous tablespoons of the batter and pour them into the center of the skillet. Use the back of the spoon to spread the mixture into a round shape.

Notes
- Chef’s tip: If you let the batter sit in the fridge for a day, the pancakes will turn out even fluffier and tastier!
