If you ever have an opportunity to host a special breakfast or brunch, these Gourmet Pancake Stacks are a great addition to add to your menu.
We used a thick batter, which prevents “running”, and keeps each pancake true to its form. Of course this recipe can be used for “regular” sized pancakes as well.
Pancakes freeze very well. The stacks can be frozen for up to one week.
