Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Apricot Pancakes
- Don't overmix the batter! Overmixing will result in tough pancakes.
- Adjust the amount of milk depending on the consistency of your batter. You may need slightly more or less depending on the flour.
- For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
- If you don't have dried apricots, you can use fresh apricots (about 1 cup, finely diced) but you may need to add a tablespoon of flour to absorb excess moisture.
