This is a great all-purpose recipe. I make it every Friday for the two little boys I take care of; since speed is of the essence on these occasions I don't bother with sifting or warming ingredients and frankly, it turns out yummy!   I use two eggs so I can pretend they are getting some protein  but that's the only modification and I make.
   I divide the batter into three sections, keep one plain, chop banana to add to the second, and add desiccated natural coconut to the third for myself. Excellent with Nutella!  
   Extras freeze well and it's nice to have them readily available for when we are in a big hurry or the morning isn't going well.
