Copycat McDonalds Hot Cakes
If you're a big fan of McDonalds Hot Cakes, you have got to try this copycat version. Now that McDonalds has done away with their all day breakfast, this will give you the chance to have their yummy hot cakes anytime. These pancakes are quick and easy to make and they freeze well. We like to make ahead a large batch and heat them up in the toaster or microwave for a quick weekday breakfast.

Notes
For perfectly round and even pancakes, cook one at a time.
You can use vegetable oil in place of olive oil
If the pan begins to burn the cooking spray, rinse the pan under cold water to cool it off
Make sure the fire is set to medium low, this helps preventing uncooked batter in the center. Storage:
Left over pancakes can be frozen, separate each with parchment and place inside of a ziplock page for easy access.
Reheat for one min in the microwave
