Tips
- For a tangier flavor, you can substitute some of the milk with plain yogurt. For a deeper rose flavor, add a drop more rosewater but be careful not to overpower.
- These pancakes are best served fresh. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently in a toaster oven or skillet.
