Wow...these turned out super fluffy and much lighter than I had expected them to with the cheese. I made an Italian sauce (kind of a cross between a pizza and a spaghetti sauce) for them. Tomato sauces sometimes bother DH's tummy, so he taste-tested, then went for his traditional maple syrup. DD#3 had the last one as an after school snack and decided that although she really liked the tomato sauce, she didn't like it on pancakes...she did, however, like the maple syrup on them. Thank you for sharing a recipe that DH says is the best pancake he's ever had (outside of our buckwheats) Mimi!!!

These are pancakes in the US sense ie closer to pikelets than crepes. It is a very thick batter but despite this the end result was a lot lighter than expected. They were a lot less cheesy than expected which was a surprise.

Instead of pasta sauce, try applesauce on top.
