The Unbearable Case of the Stolen Pancakes

Write a mystery story revolving around the inexplicably stolen pancakes from a small-town diner.

Set in a community where the biggest scandal ever faced has been the theft of the secret pancake recipe. No one in town seems in a rush to reveal the theft to the outside world, but the hunt for the thief is marked with slapstick humor, mixed up clues, and well-intentioned yet bumbling sleuths. This prompt invites writers to focus not just on humor and light-heartedness, but also on the idiosyncratic characters that populate such a small town setting.
