Notes

This recipe has been adapted from wholesomeyum.com
For your pancake batter, you can use any milk of your choice.
As the batter sits it may become too thick, if so, add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time to avoid over pouring.
Pre-chill your hand-mixer beaters/whisk and bowl in the refrigerator before you make your whipped cream.
Ingredient measurements for whipped cream have been reduced to match the serving size of the pancake recipe (2 tablespoons per serving). This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled. If you can scale the recipe, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 48 hours.
