Pancakes Raw Center
Your pancakes are browned outside but raw in the center because the heat was too high. Lower heat and finish gently.

The fix
Tap a step to check it off.
- 1 move pancakes to a 300F oven for 5 minutes
- 2 lower skillet heat to medium for the next batch
- 3 serve with syrup or butter to hide any remaining softness
If it's still wrong
- cut into pieces and pan-fry for pancake bites
- use as a base for a breakfast trifle
Prevent next time
- cook over medium heat and wait for bubbles to pop
- use a thin, even layer of batter
Notes
Why this works
Gentle heat gives the batter time to set through the center. An oven finish avoids burning the exterior while the inside cooks.
