I enjoyed these sweet little pancakes Pat. What's not to like, dessert for breakfast, what a way to start the day. The pancakes were light and tender, smothered in vanilla bean ice cream and pure maple syrup and garnished with cinnamon sugar. Thank you for sharing.

What a great way to serve pancakes! I cheated and used a box mix but did add the cinnamon and syrup to the batter. I used vanilla ice cream, more syrup, and a dash of cinnamon to the top. A very wonderful brunch recipe. Thanks so much for sharing.
