Make-Ahead Mini Pancakes

data-open-modal example

This modal can be opened by clicking the window icon in the pre-header. Because the link uses data-open-modal (instead of an href anchor) nothing appears in the address bar. You also can't use the back/forward buttons to close or reopen the modal. However, if you know the ID of the modal, you can still manually type the anchor link in your address bar and it will open (handy for client previews).

To simulate an extremely long modal and show how modals scroll, here's a ton of lorem ipsum:

“Brunch for Lunch” is a family favorite in my house. It’s a nice change-up from sandwiches and traditional lunch fare.

I like to have the items ready by pre-baking pancakes with different mix-ins and freezing them so they’re ready to go when I need them for lunch (or a quick morning breakfast)!

By baking them, I can make them into fun shapes like mini muffins or a traditional round pancake shape (depending on the pans you have at your disposal), and make them in large batches in a short amount of time rather than standing over a hot stove top for half a day trying to get them all completed.
