Notes

Troubleshooting tips:
Pancakes are gummy inside: Heat is too high or they were flipped too early. Lower heat and cook slightly longer.
Batter is too thick: Add a splash of milk.
Pancakes are too dense: Make sure your baking powder is fresh.
Pancakes fall apart: The flour blend may lack binding support or you may need to let them cool more.
Too dark on the outside: Reduce heat. Sweet potato browns faster than regular pancakes.
