FAQS
Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?
Yes, you can substitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour, but the texture and flavor may be slightly different. You might need to adjust the liquid slightly as whole wheat flour absorbs more moisture.
What can I use instead of eggs in this pancake recipe?
You can use a flaxseed meal or chia seed mixture as an egg substitute. Mix 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal or chia seeds with 2.5 tablespoons of water and let it sit for a few minutes until it thickens.
How can I make my pancakes fluffier?
To make fluffier pancakes, ensure you don't overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay. Additionally, letting the batter rest for about 5-10 minutes before cooking can help create a lighter texture.
What toppings go well with these pancakes?
These pancakes can be served with a variety of toppings such as honey, maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh berries, sliced bananas, or even chocolate chips for a sweeter treat.
How do I store leftover pancakes?
You can store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 2 months.
