Recipe Tips
The key to perfect Pancake Puppies is maintaining the right oil temperature. Too hot, and they'll brown too quickly without cooking through; too cool, and they'll absorb excess oil and become greasy. If you don't have a thermometer, test the oil by dropping a tiny bit of batter in – it should sizzle immediately and rise to the surface within seconds. For flavor variations, try adding mini chocolate chips, blueberries, or cinnamon to your batter. Just fold them in gently after mixing the batter to maintain the light texture.
