Special Precautions and Tips:
- Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in tough pancakes.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking to allow the gluten to relax, which will also result in fluffier pancakes.
- If the pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to medium-low.
- To keep the pancakes warm, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 200°F (93°C).
