Doesn't stick well to the waffle iron. The buttermilk version is too sweet

This is a good mix. It works, just needs some tweaking. First, the buttermilk version of this mix is sweet and vanilla flavored, which isn't exactly what I expect from a buttermilk mix. They went overboard sweetening all their concoctions with erythritol when it wasn't really needed for pancakes or waffles. If the consumer wants a sweet vanilla pancake, this company sells a mix specifically called "vanilla," so it's okay to give someone a choice or not. Butter is added to the dough to keep it from sticking together. And even after adding the oil, I can't use this mixture in my waffle iron because it still doesn't stick well. I should reserve this mixture for pan-fried pancakes only, and make sure I also grease the nonstick pan between pancakes. As someone who doesn't usually think about adding oil to food, it took me a lot of trial and error, burnt pieces of pancake, and a difficult cleanup before I found the right ratio of oil, water, and heat to make a decent pancake. After all, it makes delicious pancakes. It's tricky to add protein to the batter without any texture issues because I've tried it myself, so I appreciate the company making it as smooth as they are. Would I buy it again? Probably not, but that's just me.

Pros
