These are the BEST pancakes I have ever eaten. Usually I like to drown my pancakes in my homemade apple syrup, but these were awesome with a minimal amount of syrup. I made these last week, substituting milk and lemon juice for the buttermilk. It did not work, not sure if that was because of my error or whatever. In any case, I made it as stated today and they were perfect. I also scaled the recipe down to 9.6 servings to get equal eggs, etc. I really can't say enough about these, this recipe will be my pancake recipe from now on. You can also scale to 7.2 (3 eggs, 3 flour, 3 buttermilk, etc.); 4.8 (2 eggs, 2 flour, 2 buttermilk); 2.4 (1 egg, 1 flour, 1 buttermilk). Thank you for contributing! My family and I thank you very much! Was this review helpful? [ YES ]

Reviewed on Apr. 29, 2008 by Sweets    Holy PHENOMENAL pancakes, Batman! I cannot say enough great things about this recipe. The pancakes come out REALLY light and fluffy... and have a GREAT flavor! The other reviewer who said that they don't need much syrup, it's true! I was eating most from the griddle, plain. I made the recipe as specified, but added a splash of vanilla. [I also like to try to eat healthy, so I substituted whole wheat flour, which I couldn't even taste because the flavor of this pancake is so awesome, and nonfat plain yogurt for the buttermilk.] I cannot recommend this recipe enough! They do come out soooooo light and fluffy and taste like they're straight from the griddle of your fave breakfast restaurant. [Also, note to those who found their pancakes to be tough and chewy: That's usually a sign that the pancake batter was mixed too long or strongly... try gently mixing in the dry ingredients into the wet slowly and gently until moistened, and see if that makes a difference!] Was this review helpful?
