These pancakes are fantastic!!! I am the pancake queen in my family lol... I make allllllll kinds of pancakes. Pumpkin, buttermilk, carrot, zucchini, banana, ...etc. For some reason I've never come up with an apple pancake! I decided to take this recipe for "s" in the alphabet game, and boy am I glad I did. These pancakes are fabulous! I was only making them for 2, but decided to make the whole recipe and freeze the leftover pancakes hehe. I cant wait for breakfast tomorrow morning :-) :-)
