- Gently fold in the beaten egg whites into the batter, using a spatula and mixing from the bottom up to keep the mixture airy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a bit of melted butter. Pour a ladleful of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for another minute or so until golden brown.
- Serve the fluffy pancakes warm, topped with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or whipped cream for an indulgent treat!
