The combination of milk and apple cider vinegar acts as a substitute for buttermilk, which helps activate the leavening agents and makes the pancakes tender.
An electric griddle is recommended for even heating and a large surface to cook multiple pancakes at once.
Using a generous amount of whipped salted butter is key. It helps create a crispy, delicious edge on the pancakes and the saltiness balances the sweet syrup.
Use real maple syrup for the best flavor experience, as it pairs perfectly with the salty butter and fluffy pancakes.
