Also, try separating your eggs. Mix the yolks with the other ingredients, then beat the whites and fold them in. It makes the pancakes wonderfully light. (Thanks "Worst Cook in America.")

As for pie filing, I know that Lynn Rossetto Kasper had some advice about that on "The Splendid Table" recently. I'll see if I can find that podcast.
Yes about beating the egg whites....just did that this morning. Light, fluffy, spongy, springy, airy, tasty pancakes!
