This was very good. I also suggest using clarified butter or ghee keep the butter from burning. I am going to add this as one of my favorites.

I thought this was an excellent recipe, however you have to keep the pan on a very low heat and I suggest using vegetable oil instead of butter in the pan to cook the pancakes as the butter tried to burn before the pancake was cooked through. (Or make you own clarifed butter to cook them in I will defeintely be making this recipe again.

These were amazing! I also did not have whole wheat flour. I was looking for some way to use up the leftover sweet potatoes from Thanksgiving. They already had cinnamon and nutmeg so did not add any additional spices. Halved the recipe, since only two of us, used one egg and added milk so the mixture was a bit thicker than regular pancakes. My first bite was so good I waited to see if my husband would respond in like manner..and he did as well. Light and perfect. Had to go on line this morning to make sure I don't loose this recipe!!
