A few tips
If you don’t have lime juice for the buttermilk you can use white vinegar. I prefer lime juice because it adds a slight hint of flavor.
Do not overmix the pancake batter, once the lime juice and the baking soda mix it's important to maintain those bubbles for extra fluffiness.
I prefer cooking my pancakes on a non-stick pan and a little butter. This makes those crispy edges we all love!
Top your pancakes with berries, bananas, butter, syrup, etc.
Make these pancakes a little bit more kid-friendly by adding sprinkles to the batter, chocolate chips, banana slices, etc.
