How do I freeze pancakes?
Freezing pancakes is a simple and efficient way to ensure that you always have this beloved breakfast food on hand.
To properly freeze pancakes, it is important to allow them to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, stack the pancakes with a piece of parchment paper in between each one. This will prevent them from sticking together.
Next, wrap the stack of pancakes tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Be sure to label the package with the date and contents. Pancakes can be stored in the freezer for up to six months.
When ready to enjoy, thaw the pancakes in the refrigerator overnight and reheat them in the microwave or toaster oven.
Following these steps, you can easily freeze pancakes and have a delicious breakfast ready immediately.

What are good toppings for homemade pancakes?
A popular choice is fresh fruit such as blueberries, strawberries, or sliced bananas. Adding nuts such as pecans or almonds, can provide an additional crunch while sprucing up the nutritional value.
If one desires a sweeter option, drizzling honey or maple syrup over the stack can satisfy that craving.
Lastly, for those who want to turn up the decadence, chocolate chips or whipped cream can top off a stack of pancakes in a mouth-watering way.
