Copycat McDonald's Pancakes

Now you can make McDonald's Pancakes at home with this copycat recipe. Super easy to make and they are delicious!

When I was young I don't think my parents ever took me and my brother to McDonald's for breakfast. When you are young it's all about the burger and fries. And sometimes a chocolate shake. But never pancakes for breakfast.

I think the very first time I went to McDonald's for breakfast I got one of those Egg McMuffin Sandwiches. It was so long ago I honestly don't remember. In any case, years later I remember ordering these pancakes from McDonald's and thought they were pretty good. I mean don't most pancakes taste pretty much the same?

Now I get there is nothing complicated about making pancakes. I mean a few ingredients and a couple of minutes on the griddle. Not earth-shattering is it? Pancakes have been around longer than I have so I am not going to pretend this is some new never-seen recipe for pancakes. That would just be a lie.

But since this pancake recipe is supposedly the same recipe that McDonald's uses in all their restaurants around the world, I just had to give it a try and see how it compares to the pancakes you would get when visiting a McDonald's restaurant. Surprisingly pretty dang close!

🥞 Serving Suggestions

While the pancakes themselves are good, you might want to drizzle some delicious Maple Syrup over them with a little butter. Only if your diet allows. I like to have my pancakes with a side of bacon and some scrambled eggs as well. Yummy!

🥣 How to make Copycat Pancakes from McDonald's

Preheat and grease a griddle or frying pan.

Pour about ⅓ cup of the batter onto the griddle. When the edges become dry and the top is bubbly flip the pancake and cook the other side for about a minute.
