CANADIAN BEST EVER PANCAKES AND PANCAKE MIX
This mix makes the lightest and tenderest pancakes because it's made with soft low gluten cake and pastry flour (not self rising flour). It's also less expensive than bought pancake mixes and just as handy. Best of all, it takes just minutes to put together. Fresh or make ahead and frozen, pancakes are a delicious start to any day. Serve with favorite toppings or try nifty pancake sandwiches (below).
