Traditional Pancakes

I grew up on Sunday Pancakes - and the occasional weekday ones as well - and it was always so much fun making them and enjoying them with my family! My dad used Aunt Jemima's mix, but this recipe is just as traditional and made from scratch. They're easy and delicious, and ready to enjoy quickly!
