Chef's tip

For even tastier pancakes, add a touch of shredded cheese to the batter before cooking 🧀!

Yes

Freezes very well, cooked, up to 2 months in freezer bags, separated by parchment paper.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

The batter can be made the day before and kept in the fridge. Mix well before cooking.

Mistakes to avoid
