This recipe happens to be the same one I've been using for years. You can substitute sour milk or buttermilk powder for the buttermilk. For the sour cream, I always use light and get fabulous results. The best pancakes ever!

These certainly were fluffy! And for flavor, they get a five star. However, they were soooo fluffy that I had trouble getting them to cook through w/o burning (unless I smushed them flat which sort of defeated the purpose). Easy and yummy--we'll try them again when dh, who is a more expert pancake maker, is home. Made for PAC Spring 2008.
