Notes
For softer pancakes, avoid overmixing and cook over moderate heat. For a crispier texture, extend cooking slightly on each side. Freeze cooled pancakes in a single layer before transferring to storage bags. Handle gently while flipping. Customize flavors with berries, nuts, cocoa powder, or spices. Store refrigerated for up to five days and reheat before serving.
