IHOP Pancakes But Better
A complete guide to making the ultimate fluffy buttermilk pancakes at home, far surpassing the restaurant chain version. It includes recipes for classic buttermilk pancakes, a rich glossy blueberry topping, a sweet cinnamon spread, and a cream cheese glaze. Chef's tips: (1) Do not overmix the pancake batter; keeping some lumps is perfectly fine and helps ensure fluffiness. (2) Using a 4 oz. ice cream scoop ensures uniform size and helps get perfect round shapes. (3) A touch of light corn syrup in the blueberry sauce gives it a professional, glossy, mirror-like sheen. (4) Make sure the cinnamon mixture reaches exactly 230°F (110°C) before adding the cinnamon and butter to get the perfect spreadable consistency.
