BTW, this works great for waffles, too. Just don’t overfill your waffle iron like I did here: You’ll get 2-3 waffles from the same pancake recipe. And here’s another waffle variation.

And here’s the pancake recipe with bananas and cinnamon. Just leave out the blueberries and add those to the batter as it cooks, then flip.

Can we just order some? Might save some time…

Mail order pancakes as a side-hustle? I’ll get Dani on that! There are some protein-pancake box mixes available, but the protein quality is iffy and you still have to buy a few ingredients to add to them. This version is made with high-quality protein and actually ends up cheaper than the boxed stuff.
