Puffed Pancake

Submitted by FLUFFSTER

"Puffed pancakes are the Cadillac of pancakes to kids. Good served with fruit on top, whipped cream, or warmed syrup on the side. Put the syrup in a small (or medium) bowl, preferably one with handles, as the syrup will be very warm, and you can get burned. You will need a 12-inch skillet, or an oven-proof skillet, or the pancake won't puff)."

I served ours up with strawberries and whipped cream on the top. What a great dessert breakfast for us!
