Notes
For softer pancakes, avoid overmixing and cook over moderate heat. For a crispier finish, extend cooking time slightly on each side. Freeze cooled pancakes in a single layer before transferring to freezer bags. Use a wide spatula for easy handling. Customize flavors with fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, or spices. Store refrigerated for up to five days and reheat before serving.
