Storage Suggestions

Pancakes taste great when made fresh. You can instead prepare the Pancake batter night before and store it in an airtight container so that you just have to make Pancakes in the morning.

Having said that, you can easily freeze these pancakes. Make the pancakes and let them cool completely. Not freeze them in a freezer-safe container. When ready to serve, just thaw and reheat on a pan or microwave and serve with the choice of your toppings.
