Clementine Pancake
In addition to standard pancake batter (my pancake mix, buttermilk, and egg), I added the zest of two clementines and a tablespoon or so of Grand Marnier (the liqueur in place of the vanilla I usually add), then topped with maple syrup, the wedges of the clementines I zested, and some whipped cream.
My pancake mix... at some point, it was time to shorten the pancake-making process by pre-mixing the dry ingredients. I combined 6 cups of flour, 3 cups of sugar, 6 tablespoons of baking powder, 3 tablespoons of baking soda, 3 tablespoons of salt, and a liberal coating of cinnamon in a 1.5 gallon sealable container (designed for cereal). Give it a good shake before you want ot make pancakes to fluff up and recombine the ingredients, then combine 1/2 cup mix with 1/4 cup buttermilk and 1 egg per serving. To this base batter, I usually add somewhere between a teaspoon and a tablespoon of vanilla and a handful of frozen blueberries (fresh is terrible this time of year), though you can see I vary the accents from time to time.
The base mix recipe is 1 cup of flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 T baking powder, 1/2 T baking soda, 1/2 T salt, which makes 3 servings. This just scales up to the size of your storage vessel or meal. I only about half-filled my container, so I'd have plenty of room to shake.
