Notes

Tip
Allowing the pancake mixture to rest for 15 minutes before you cook them is great if you have time.
You can replace the milk with buttermilk if you like or make your own by adding 1 Tbsp vinegar or lemon juice to milk. 
Adjust the amount of milk you add if you prefer a thinner or thicker mixture.
I have very successfully substituted Gluten Free Flour (cup for cup) in the mix so everyone can enjoy the convenience.
