Most recipes call for a cooling period in the fridge for a number of hours which forces you to pre)predict what the family wants for the next day's breakfast or to cut the cooling time and produce pancakes the size and texture of bar coasters. Many run to Bisquick or Aunt Jemima for a commercial solution. Here is a batter which will produce better pancakes in less time, with more fun, to more acclaim, at a greatly reduced cost.
There is rarely anything more satisfying than good pancakes, possibly because we rely so heavily on egg dishes for breakfast. Once you have your basic recipe almost anything can be added for any variation under the sun. Chopped apples, berries, nuts, even chopped chocolate can grace this simple dish.
