Absolutely wonderful!! Had these for breakfast with eggs, toast, and fried ham. I REALLY loved them with maple syrup on top. I will definitely be making these again. Thanks for the great recipe!! ~Manda

Delicious! My first attempt at this recipe proved successful. My batter wasn't stiff at all, and it still turned out great. My picky wife even ate some!
