Note
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it stand for 5 minutes.
For a richer flavor, you can replace the melted shortening with melted butter.
Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200&# 194;°F (95ðC) oven while you finish cooking the rest of the batch.
Leftover batter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good stir before cooking.
