McDonald's breakfast offerings extend beyond burgers, including their popular pancakes, known as hotcakes, served with syrup and whipped butter. A social media user, Raphael Gomes, shared a TikTok video showcasing a simple hack to recreate these pancakes using just Bisquick, Sprite, and water, claiming it closely resembles McDonald's version. Gomes highlights the fluffiness achieved through this method, although McDonald's official recipe does not list Sprite as an ingredient. The addition of soda in cooking is common for enhancing texture in pancakes and similar dishes.
In a video shared by Raphael Gomes on TikTok, the social media user breaks down a two-ingredient (plus water) hack, which they claim tastes nearly identical to McDonald's version.
Gomes combines 1 1/3 cups of Bisquick Pancake Mix with a 1/2 cup of Sprite and a 1/2 cup of water. As the ingredients are blended, Gomes admits the mixture smells like McDonald's pancakes.
While Gomes notes that the Sprite is likely added to create fluffiness in the pancakes, there's no mention of Sprite or any other soda on the ingredients list of McDonald's pancakes.
Soda is known to impart sugar and carbonation into matters that offer a light and bouncy texture and is often included in copycat recipes for McDonald's pancakes.
