Christina's Notes
- Batter: Make sure not to overwork your batter; there should be a few lumps. Let it rest 5 minutes before cooking.
- Double: Double the recipe to make as many pancakes as you want. Store in freezer bags to save for later.
- Griddle: Preheat your griddle ahead of time. Wait until bubbles form on the top of the pancakes to flip.
