The secret to the best pancakes? The right batter. If yours has never quite hit the mark, there’s no harm in opting for a pre-made mix. It’s especially useful if you’re short on time after a long day at work, or if you’ve got a crowd to feed and want to ensure there’s enough to go around. Crafting the perfect batter mix couldn’t be simpler – it’s a doddle to make by just stirring in cold water until it’s lump-free, then sizzling it up in your pan or relying on your trusty pancake maker.
