Place a large pan or griddle over medium heat. Use a basting brush to brush oil generously over your cooking surface.

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sugar.

Make a well in the center and add the eggs, milk and butter. Whisk together until thoroughly mixed.

Test your griddle using a small amount of batter- make sure that the griddle is not too hot (the worst) or not hot enough.

Pour out pancakes to desired size, and flip once the bottom has turned a golden brown and the edges are set (the top may not be). One the other side is cooked, serve topped with butter and syrup.
