FAQs
1. Can I use whole wheat flour instead of Bisquick?
Yes! You can use whole wheat flour, but you may need to adjust the liquid slightly.
2. Can I make the batter ahead of time?
While it’s best to make the batter fresh, you can mix the dry ingredients ahead and add the wet ingredients right before cooking.
3. Can I freeze leftover pancakes?
Absolutely! Let them cool completely, then place in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze, and transfer to a container. Try reheating in the toaster for best results!
