To prepare, simply combine the dry mix with the wet ingredients specified on the packaging, typically milk, eggs, and oil or melted butter. Whisk until just combined, being careful not to overmix, which 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.
