Patio Pancakes

Proudmoms's Note:

Boy, these are some of the best pancakes I've ever had. They do have quite a bit of butter in them so it's wise not to let them cook unattended. They are quite rich, light and fluffy. You don't need to grease your non-stick pan. I don't think they need that much syrup, I didn't use any butter aside from what was called for in recipe. All 4 members in my home love them. I made these two times in 2 weeks and froze enough for 6 meals. The recipe says you should get 24 pancakes I got 29 both times. If it looks watery don't worry it will be fine, I was so freaked that I did something wrong. I rechecked the recipe and I didn't do anything wrong. So I left it alone and cooked them and the pancakes turned out fantastic. Cooking time approximate. Recipe is from McCall's practically cookless cookbook 1965
