Thanks Barb. It is delicious. We don't even need to add any syrup because the pancakes are moist and delicious on their own. I have added semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of raisins. Yummy!

A bit too sweet for my taste. But worth a try! Thanks!

These were WONDERFUL. I made just a few changes to the recipe, using 1/2 c vanilla yogurt, and 1/2 c whole wheat flour with 1/2 c white flour. This seemed to keep them from being too mushy as others had described. Also, I put a few chocolate chips in each--SOOO YUMMY. This will definitely be a regular weekend breakfast for us!
