Jalapeño Pancakes

Used THIS recipe for the amounts and the base with a few additions of our own. Yielded ~18 pancakes.

Prepared batter as per recipe (we didn't have buttermilk so it was created using >1 cup of milk and 3 tbsp vinegar; 1/4 cup=4tbsp)

Added to batter:
Chopped fresh jalapeños
Frozen corn (heated in the microwave before adding to batter)
Grated sharp cheddar cheese
Fried pancetta (not necessary to add in the future, it was too salty)

Served with orange marmalade (not too sweet) and fresh orange slices (tastes better than maple syrup)
