Start Cooking
Preheat a non-stick skillet on medium heat. If you don’t have a non-stick pan, add a teaspoon or two of oil to the pan, so pancakes don’t stick.
Using a ladle, add about ½ cup of batter to the skillet per pancake.
Allow to cook until bubbling on top and then flip.
Cook for a couple minutes more until browned. Serve with maple syrup or your favorite pancake toppings.
