I have literally been testing and tweaking pancake recipes for two years and these have become my absolute favorite. They are light, airy, and delish! The batter is a little thick and if that’s not your thing, thin it out with a bit more buttermilk.
The syrup is called “special occasion syrup” around here and lately, it’s been what the kids want for their birthday breakfast and sometimes we splurge on an average Tuesday. It’s so good you’ll find yourself wanting to eat it by the spoonful and put it on top of everything! (Try it on bacon 😍).
