## Making Savory Pancakes a Brunch Tradition
One of the best things about this recipe is how easy it is to turn into a family tradition. Here’s how I made it work for us:
* **Weekend ritual:** Every Saturday or Sunday, we gather in the kitchen to prep and cook the pancakes together.
* **Involve everyone:** Kids love mixing the batter and adding veggies or cheese.
* **Toppings bar:** We set out bowls of various toppings so everyone customizes their plate.
* **Leftovers for lunch:** The pancakes store well in the fridge and reheat easily, making them perfect for quick lunches.
