Notes
Tips:
- Thick batter = fluffier pancakes that hold their shape.
- Flip gently with a small spatula to avoid breakage.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if needed.
- Avoid microwaving when reheating for the best texture.
- Bacon, turkey, or grilled veggies can replace pepperoni.
- Mozzarella or provolone work instead of cheddar.
- Nut-free? Use sunflower seed flour instead of almond.
