Nutrition

- Contains wheat/gluten and dairy
- Provides carbohydrates and some protein from eggs and milk
- Higher in calories when served with syrup and toppings
Meal Prep & Storage
- Make batter 15–20 minutes ahead and keep covered in refrigerator
- Store leftover cooked pancakes in an airtight container in fridge up to 3–4 days
- Reheat in toaster or warm oven until heated through
- Freeze cooked pancakes separated by parchment paper for up to 2 months
- No cooking required when serving cold; reheat for best texture
Optional “Extra Tall” Step
☐ Separate eggs.
☐ Mix yolks into batter.
☐ Beat whites to soft peaks.
☐ Gently fold into batter before cooking.
Texture Check
✔ Batter should fall slowly off spoon
✔ Pancakes should rise and stay thick
✔ Inside should be soft and fluffy, not dense
