<p>I&#8217;ve learn to love pancakes lately, I was and probably still lean more towards waffles but this pancake recipe is probably one of the best ones.</p>



<p>The pancakes are very fluffy, delicious and versatile. The different variations I make with this recipe are the good old plain pancakes, chocolate chip pancakes and chocolate pancakes.</p>

<p>The recipe below is for plain pancakes but if you want to make chocolate pancakes by reducing the flour by two tablespoons and add two tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder. </p>



<p>If you want to add chocolate chips to the pancakes add them once you have the batter in the pan or griddle not directly in the mixing bowl with the batter or the chocolate chips will sink.</p>



<p><strong>Kitchen tools you need:</strong></p>



<p>2 Mixing bowl<br>Whisk<br>Measuring cups and spoons<br>Fork or wooden spoon<br>Slotted spatula</p>

<p><strong>Storing your</strong> <strong>pancakes</strong></p>



<p>I love making this recipe on the weekends because I always have a lot of extra pancakes that I can freeze and eat during the week. If you decide to freeze the pancakes make sure you place a piece of parchment paper between each pancake. Store them in an airtight container and they&#8217;ll be good for 3 months. When ready to eat thaw them out in the refrigerator overnight, to heat them up you can pop the in a toaster or 45 seconds in the microwave.</p>



<p>Enjoy!<br>XO Carol</p>
