- Before preparing pancakes, remove the peppermint candies from the jar and set aside.
- Empty remaining mason jar contents into a large mixing bowl.
- Add wet ingredients (listed above under "additional ingredients") to bowl of dry ingredients.
- Whisk together until combined, but don't over-stir. It's ok to have a few small lumps.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add 1-2 Tablespoons butter to pan.
- Once the butter is melted, add a 1/2 cup of the pancake batter to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, until the surface is covered in air bubbles, then flip and cook on the other side.
- Repeat with remaining batter.
