FAQ

Can I make these without Bisquick?

Yes, substitute with any complete pancake mix using the same ratio, or make from scratch with flour, baking powder, and salt.

What if my pancakes keep breaking when I roll them?

They're likely overcooked or too thick. Use thinner batter and cook just until bubbles form and they flip easily.

How long do leftovers keep?

Store rolled pancakes in refrigerator up to 2 days. Reheat gently in microwave for 15-20 seconds to warm through.
