It’s actually really quick and easy to make pancake batter. This recipe is my go-to that never fails and makes amazingly light and fluffy pancakes every time.
Its easy to add berries into the mix, and I will generally make a big batch of plain batter and then drop the requested berries into each pancake as soon as it goes into the pan. This way you can make multiple versions with one batch of batter.
