Just Like Grandmas!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My grandma was an amazing country cook. Everything she made tasted like heaven - probably a bit of nostalgia talking. But I... distinctly remember her pancakes being especially delicious. She's been gone nearly 20 years and I haven't been able to replicate her recipe until today. These are my grandma's pancakes. Unbelievable! Thank you Cathy!Read more

The Best Pancakes
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These pancakes are awesome! I did not have buttermilk so I added 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to 2% milk and let it... sit for 20 minutes as someone recommended. They came out wonderful! Thanks for the suggestion!Read more

This is IT!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Absolutely awesome! Since it's Christmas, I added a little eggnog to the batter. Had some blueberries and strawberries,... reduced those into a syrup. These are delish and not heavy at all. I will never buy pancake mix again. I have searched a long time for a pancake recipe that I like. Store bought mix just never quite cut it. I can see myself as an old, white-haired grandma fixing these pancakes for my grandkids!!!!Read more

Excellent Base Recipe for Homemade Pancakes!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I stumbled across this recipe. I have a large family of 5 that loves cakes. So I doubled this recipe. If you are one to... playds around with ingredients and add to your personal taste this is a great foundation recipe. I found that I had to "tweak" the consistency of the batter, by adding a little bit of water. My family like thinner cakes. I also added a bit of agave nector(or sugar) to taste and coconut extract(sometimes I will add lemon or almond). I tend to not like the baking soda/baking powder taste, so I made sure I just added a bit less, especially as I doubled this recipe! The cakes were light, fluffy and delicious! Easy to make! A hit with the family!!!Read more

Nice n fluffy
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Nice texture, moist and fluffy as pancakes should be. I had to add extra milk, as i thought batter was too thick at first. ... And i took some advice and added a little vanilla too. Mine were with blueberrys, so any sweetness was missing the berries made up for it. Read more
