I've yet to find a pancake recipe that surpasses Bisquick.
There! I said it.
I've munched pancakes all around the globe, and yet, I haven't found any that I like better than what I make at home with Bisquick. Okay, truth be told, I do fancy it up a bit - I use the extra-fluffy recipe, with its triple-action acid-base chemistry1, to produce a magically voluminous cake. And I fry them in a little more oil than most so they get a ring of crunchity goodness around the edge, a trick I picked up on an elementary-school-era sleepover with a friend. And maybe a handful of pecans or some banana slices here and there. But other pancakes are just anemic and blah.
Now those are pancakes!
1 3 NaHCO3 (s) + C6H8O7 (aq) --> 3 CO2 (g) + 3 H2O (l) + Na3C6H5O7 (aq)
and
NaHCO3 (s) + 2 Na2H2P2O7 (aq) --> 2 CO2 (g) + H2O (l) + 2 Na2HPO4 (aq)
and probably a little
2 NaHCO3 (s) --> CO2 (g) + H2O (l) + Na2CO3 (aq)
