To prepare, simply follow the instructions on the package, which typically involve adding wet ingredients like eggs, milk, and oil to the dry mix. Whisk until just combined; overmixing can result in tough pancakes. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or waffle iron to medium-high heat. Pour the batter onto the hot surface and cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
