In my house, pancakes have been a staple for many years because my kids love them and this dish was always the special weekend breakfast. But these weren’t your run-of-the-mill pancakes since I was always trying to change up the recipe to keep them fun and interesting. I later discovered that if I had the mixture ready to go, the process would be much simpler. Besides, I could tailor it to my taste by adding lemon zest or poppy seeds. My favorite recipe has also turned into a great gift and I can promise you that everyone loves receiving these fun pancake mix jars. All they have to add is eggs, milk, butter and vanilla. What more could you ask for? The cooking process is the same as all other pancakes, but the flavors and textures are completely different. After this, you’ll fall in love with this delicious mixture. The best part is that you can make it at home and put them away in the cupboard to make delicious pancakes whenever you want.
