McDonalds Pancake Recipe – Great Freezer Recipe

Breakfast will be a huge hit when you make this McDonalds Pancake Recipe. This is the best pancake recipe!

 

We love pancakes. Sometimes we like to go to McDonald’s for breakfast and get a McDonalds Big Breakfast. And other times we like to make pancakes at home.

 

For the longest time, I could not make pancakes! They would not fluff up or they would be raw inside. I was so happy when this recipe worked and tasted so good! 

 

 

 

 

This is our family’s favorite recipe. It really reminds us of McDonalds Pancakes. My kids love them. Sometimes I add some sausage patties and hashbrowns and my kids think it is the best breakfast ever! 

 

I love that this recipe makes so many fluffy pancakes and we freeze them so we have pancakes for a few days. 

 

 

 

They are much easier to heat up than to make a new batch every day! Then you just pop them in the microwave for 30-45 seconds and enjoy. 

 

When you make this recipe for McDonalds Pancake Recipe, it is much cheaper and tastes better than store-bought frozen pancakes.

 

Plus I don’t need to get up early and get out of my pajamas for us to enjoy a delicious breakfast! 

 

What are some other ways that you enjoy eating your pancakes? Here are a few more creative ways to enjoy pancakes! 

  • Sprinkles! If you are making these pancakes for a birthday celebration you can top them with sprinkles and whipped cream. 
  • Real maple syrup and a pat of butter make these pancakes extra rich and delicious. These thick and fluffy pancakes absorb these delicious toppings. 
  • Bacon! I haven’t tried this but I have seen people put a piece of cooked bacon on the griddle and then cover it with pancake batter and let it cook. Some people love the combination of bacon and syrup. (I am not one of those people!) 
  • Add some berries. When we go out to eat my daughter loves to get some strawberries with whipped cream with her pancakes. Sometimes they make them look like a Mickey face! You could even add some bananas. 
  • Use different syrups! They make so many different kinds of syrups. So grab something other than butter or maple-flavored syrup. I love to go to iHop and try out the strawberry and blueberry syrup. Oh and I love the buttered pecan syrup! 

 

So now you have the best recipe for fluffy and light pancakes and a ton of ways to enjoy them. Make sure you leave me a comment and tell me your favorite way to enjoy pancakes!

Hi. I just love macca's pancakes but they are too expensive now and i have been buying ready made golden pancakes from woolworths that were just ok. I tried your recipe and wow They are amazing. The best pancakes i ever had and yes, better that macca's. They were gone fast and i will be making more. Foolproof recipe even for a 67 year old man. Thank you for the best pancake recipe ever. Cheers. Gary.

I am so glad you love them! They are so easy. Sometimes we like to add a splash of vanilla to the batter.

How would it be if I substituted buttermilk for the milk?

I have never used buttermilk in this recipe. If you try it - let me know how it works.

Pancakes look awesome. My brother was a Manager at Mc'Ds for 10 years and he says they also add 1 teaspoon cinnamon to the mixture. Not enough to overpower it just a little hint of sweetness.
