  • Preheat a griddle or non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small pat of butter.
  • Pour the batter onto the hot griddle by 1/4 cupfuls, leaving space between each pancake.
  • Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.
  • Serve warm. I will let you pick your topping, I usually go for pure maple syrup, a bit of Greek yogurt (goes straight in my biceps) and bit of chopped nuts.
