Don’t be fooled, these light and fluffy pancakes are half the fat but equally delicious.

Who wrote this recipe? What is 0.38 tsp of salt? Just say 1/4 tsp of salt...

Was someone drunk writing this?

Either you go fully by weight, e.g. ounces, or you go fully by cups and spoons. Please make a decision.

My family loves breakfast for dinner so tonight we made pancakes and bacon. These went together easily and fluffed up beautifully. One could easily toss in some blueberries or diced pear or apple to change it up a bit. I used a 1/4 cup to measure the batter into the pan and came out with 14 pancakes total. Will make again.
