Notes

How should I store the leftovers?

For the leftover pancakes, you will want them to cool to room temperature first. Then, place them in a freezer bag or airtight container. Place a paper towel in between each pancake layer to keep them from sticking together.
Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature as well, then place in an airtight container in the fridge. It should be used in a week or so. Lastly, for the sugared cranberries you should put them in a plastic bag or airtight container in the fridge.

How can I reheat the pancakes?

Place the pancakes on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven on 350 for 4-5 minutes.
Top tip: Do a test pancake before baking your batch to make sure the heating is correct and that you have the right timing.
