I love making these pancakes on lazy weekend mornings. You can top them with fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or your favorite nut butter. The batter is easy to handle, so even picky eaters will love flipping them themselves!

These pancakes are also great for meal prep — just double the recipe and store in the fridge for a quick breakfast all week.
