This is a homemade version of the popular Japanese Souffle Pancakes. They are incredibly fluffy and light.
I tried quite a few recipes I came across on the internet and while they tasted delicious, they didn’t quite taste like the ones I had at Gram.
After about a dozen attempts, I think this is as close as I can get until they share their recipe.

These do take more effort than your regular classic buttermilk pancakes, but they are a fun treat. The pancakes are cooked in a skillet just like regular pancakes but the batter involves a meringue, which is what makes these so much lighter.
