Rose Water or Orange Blossom Pancakes

Nasseh's Note:

This is a nice change from your ordinary pancake. The cardamon goes nicely with the rose water while the cinnamon is a nice addition to the orange blossom water. Note: I have not tried this recipe. It seems that it batter would be dry the way it is listed. Water may need to be added to the mixture.

I like the taste and smell of orange blossom water so I decided to do the pancakes with that and the cinnamon. Great mix. But I'm curious to try orange blossom water with cardmom. Maybe it would be great. I had to add the 1 cup of water to have a good consistancy. I made beautiful pancakes. And they taste great. Thanks Nasseh :) Made for Ramadan tag game

These were delicious but I don't know if I did something wrong. I cut the recipe to make 3 pancakes and aside from using Splenda for the sugar I followed the recipe. It was very thick so I started adding more orange water a bit at a time. When I had used more than double the amount ask for I thought that maybe it was supposed to be thick since the directions say "Smooth into a circle". Then I couldn't get them to brown even though they were well cooked. I'd like to try this again making the batter thin enough to pour into a circle.
