Very good! Made 1/2 a batch and it was plenty for my hungry toddlers' dinners. Thanks for sharing!

I substitute cranberries for blueberries. What a great recipe! If you half everything in the recipe you have a tasty breakfast for 2. I think the buttermilk makes such a difference in taste. Thanks for sharing.

These were a bit of a disappointment. We love buttermilk pancakes of any kind, these just didn't have any flavor. Thank goodness for the blueberries to save the pancake taste. My husband said they tasted "eggy". The flavor and texture was kind of like a crepe, only taller in size. I was careful not to overmix, so I don't know if I went wrong somewhere else or if its just a pancake recipe that didn't suit my family's taste.
