This made a delicious breakfast treat. I used a gluten free flour blend and reduced the raisins to about 1/3 cup. A cast iron skillet was used to cook the pancake. I did cover the pan during the cooking on the first side. To facilitate the flipping process the pancake was turned out on a large plate then slid back into the pan to cook the over side. It was cut and topped with fresh pear sauce for a super delicious treat. Made for It's Tapped--The Diabetic Oktoberfest.

Well, we've been trying lots of new pancake recipes this week and this one is really good but you have to have a sweet tooth. The raisins added nice texture, but I would leave off the powdered sugar for this recipe. also, turning a large pancake was a challenge, so I would go with regular sized ones next time. :) The sour cream came thru nicely and would go great as extra on the side. Made for PRMR

Yummy, yummy, yummy. What a great pancake Syd. I love pancakes and have never tried anything quite like this, the flavor and texture of the kings pancake were incredible. I subed chopped peacans for the almonds because I was out, they worked great. thank you so much for sharing a recipe that I will make again and again.
