Preheat and lightly grease a griddle or pan over medium-high heat.
butter or oil for greasing
Whisk together 1 cup of dry mix with 3/4 cup water.
1 cup pancake mix, 3/4 cup water
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto prepared griddle or pan. Let pancakes cook until bubbles form and golden brown on the bottom before flipping. Flip and cook other side until golden brown. Serve hot with syrup. Makes about 5 pancakes.

Notes

Tip: Add an egg to the batter (1 cup of dry mix and 3/4 cup water) for extra flavor, richness, and even fluffier pancakes.

*Milk powder adds richness and flavor to the pancakes but can easily be omitted from the mix and replaced by using milk instead of water when you make the pancakes. You can also use any kind of plant-based milk for a vegan option.
