Have you ever had your pancakes "stick" to the pan while baking? You wonder what you are doing wrong.
Pancakes are one of the most popular dishes that remind us of carefree childhood years. You can prepare them in a salty or sweet version, but we often face the problem of pancakes sticking to the pan while frying.
With the right ones tricks and with the right approach, we can achieve that the pancakes will come out perfectly smooth and without unpleasant grip.
The right amount of sugar
When you start making pancake batter, it's important to watch the amount of added sugar. Too much sugar can cause it to burn and stick to the surface of the pan when frying, which can negatively affect the appearance and taste of the pancakes.
It is recommended to add no more than 1 teaspoon of sugar per amount of dough. If you want to add sweetness to your pancakes, consider using natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. These sweeteners behave more stably during frying and do not cause sticking problems.

The next key step is choosing the right cookware and setting the stove correctly. It is recommended to use a pan that transfers heat well and has a smooth surface.
Make sure the pan is thoroughly heated before starting to fry. Bake the pancakes on the highest heat of the stove, which will allow the dough to bake quickly and not stay unnecessarily long on the surface of the pan.
With these simple tricks, you can avoid problems with pancakes sticking to the pan and enjoy perfectly prepared pancakes without unpleasant surprises. With the right amount of sugar and choosing the right pan and stove setting, your pancakes will be always turned out smooth, tasty and delicious.
