Cook the pancakes

Notes

For tender pancakes, stop mixing once the dry streaks disappear—overmixing makes them tough. Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 3 days; reheat in a toaster oven or skillet until warm through. Freezing is yes: freeze cooked pancakes in a single layer, then transfer to a bag and reheat from frozen. Dietary swap: use plant-based milk in place of water/milk if you want dairy-free pancakes (follow the mix box for consistency).
