Notes
- Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Reheat pancakes in a toaster or skillet for a crispy exterior.
- Serve these savory pancakes with a dollop of sour cream or a fried egg for a complete meal.
- Don't overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay, as this ensures a tender pancake!
