Tips to Make Christmas Pancakes

• Make sure to measure your flour correctly by spooning it into the measuring cup and leveling it off with a knife for accurate results.
• Don’t overmix the batter; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
• For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients.

Variation

You can easily customize these pancakes by adding chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruits to the batter before cooking. These additions can give a different taste and texture for a fun twist!

FAQs

Can I make the pancake batter ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the batter the night before, cover it, and store it in the fridge. Just give it a quick stir before cooking.

What if I don’t have milk?
You can substitute milk with almond milk, soy milk, or even water. The pancakes will still turn out delicious!

Can I freeze the Christmas Pancakes?
Absolutely! Once cooled, place the pancakes in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, and then transfer them to a freezer bag. They can be reheated in the toaster or microwave.
