When pancakes touch a griddle, the heat from the griddle causes the batter to begin cooking. The moisture in the batter turns into steam, which helps the pancakes rise and creates a fluffy texture. As they cook, the sugars in the batter caramelize, leading to a golden-brown color on the surface. The cooking process also causes proteins in the batter to coagulate, solidifying the pancake's structure.
