Cook the Pancakes:
- Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.

Serve:
- Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter. Add more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as fresh fruit, syrup, or nuts.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider mixing in some cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
- If you prefer thinner pancakes, you can add a little more almond milk to the batter until you reach your desired consistency.
- These pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to a month. Reheat in a toaster or microwave before serving.
