Tips & Substitutions
For a fluffier pancake, ensure your blender is not overfilled and blend the ingredients only until smooth. You can substitute regular milk with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free version. Adding a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract can enhance the flavor. If you're short on time, use store-bought pancake mix instead, but adjust the liquid accordingly.
