Yes, they certainly are easy to make. One of my pet peeves is people
being unable to make pancakes unless they have a mix on hand. Flour,

They are all kitchen staples. I get that they might be handy on camping
trips.

comes to maple syrup and she insists on the real deal. Lucky for us
there are a couple maple farms nearby.
