Wow!  These Cinnamon Streusel Pancakes are light, but super sugar-y and rich. And I don’t mean that in a bad way. They truly are absolutely delicious. I didn’t even make it through one because I felt like I was eating dessert, but here’s the thing… Sometimes you NEED to just give in and make something sweet and amazing for yourself. I think these would be awesome for Christmas Morning or the 4th of July. Wouldn’t they?
I know you are all going to adore these like we did so hurry and make them tomorrow, then report back to me about what you thought. Woohoo!!!!

Can You Make Pancake Batter Ahead Of Time?

You can make pancake and waffle batter ahead of time.

After combining all ingredients, place batter in a container with a tight lid.

Store in refrigerator until you are ready to use.

Baking powder can lose some of its potency overnight, so you may want to stir in a little more baking powder just before cooking.

Remove the batter from the refrigerator and let it warm up a little before cooking the pancakes.

Why Are Pancakes Flat?

Flat pancakes are a result of overcooking, or improper preparation of the batter.

Pancake batter should be somewhat thick and not runny.

Too much liquid in the batter will cause pancakes to be flat.

Over mixing the batter will result in flat pancakes.

Pancake batter should be stirred together just until all the dry ingredients are incorporated.

It’s ok to still have a few little lumps of flour in the batter.

When cooking pancakes, flip the pancake when the bubbles that form on top are beginning to pop.

How Do You Know When To Flip A Pancake?

You should flip a pancake when the bubbles pop and form holes that stay open on the surface of the pancake.
