Notes

**Makes 8 to 10 Pancakes**

To Freeze:Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and line pre-made pancakes in a single layer, making sure they don't touch. Place baking sheet in the freezer and freeze pancakes, about 30 minutes to an hour. Transfer frozen pancakes to a resealable bag and store for up to 3 months.
To reheat in the oven: Transfer frozen pancakes to a baking dish in a single layer and tightly wrap with foil. Bake pancakes for 10-15 minutes until heated through and warm.
To reheat in microwave: Transfer pancakes onto a plate in a single layer and cover with a lightly dampened paper towel or clean dish cloth. Microwave on full power, in 30 second intervals, until pancakes are soft and warm.
To reheat in toaster: This method can be done, but the results will yield a more crisp pancake that isn't as soft as the other methods of reheating. If you don't mind that, then this is another quick reheating method you can use.
