Piping hot and puffy from the oven, this golden pancake made a pretty presentation for a skier's theme breakfast I hosted. Served with my homemade buttermilk syrup, it's an eye-opening treat. That easy syrup tastes great on waffles and French toast, too. -Renae Moncur, Burley, Idaho

I will definitely be making this again. The pancake was tasty, but the syrup clinched it.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this yet! I have been making this pancake since I bought the magazine in 1998. This is the best recipe! So much better than only being able to cook a few pancakes at a time. I love the texture and taste of these. I always get recipe requests from my guests when I make this. I must add I have never made the syrup, since we are lucky enough to receive a gift of maple syrup each year from friends that produce the liquid gold! I highly recommend this and suggest to try different toppings like fruit or whatever....very versitile!

My family loves this recipe and I have given it to several friends who have asked for it. The buttermilk syrup is wonderful and keeps for weeks in the fridge.

A family favourite, I would suggest using a large saucepan for the syrup as when I make it it boils up quite high.

This is a family favorite and super easy to make, and the buttermilk syrup is excellent! I get requests to serve this often.

This is one of my families absolute favorites. The buttermilk syrup is the ticket I think.

This recipe is so easy and so delicious! My husband was skeptical when he saw it, but after taking it on the go for breakfast, he called from work to tell me how delicious it was. Definitely one that we will be using on a regular basis!
