I love pancakes! I wish you had posted this question early this morning. Pancakes vary in size, but I seldom deliberately break them. I keep them heated in the oven until each of us has several small or a couple of big ones each. If I broke one it would be for a grandchild. Once broken the pieces become ‘some pancake’ #(1) Otherwise, when all are served whole, ‘some pancakes’ #(2).
