My family loved these! Followed the recipe as written - the pancakes were very moist and the cinnamon brown butter was delicious! We even froze the extra pancakes so that we could have them during the week. Yum!

Skipped the butter and topped with fat free cream cheese instead. Very filling and delicious, a good alternative to normal, sugary pancakes.

Followed this recipe exactly except left the pecans out of the butter. These pancakes are melt-in-your-mouth delicious & everyone raved about the cinnamon brown butter. Comfort food at it's best!

Made them w/mashed sweet potato and added cinnamon and ground nutmeg. Didn't need the browned butter syrup, but I'm sure it's yummy too. They're wonderful!!!!!

The only thing is that you have to double this recipe and triple the syrup or people are upset about just getting a few of these wonderful pancakes! They are good cold with cream cheese spread on them as a snack.

These pancakes are so moist and flavorful! I added 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. Did not even need the butter! I am already planning on when to make them again!

We loved this recipe. I have also made the brown butter syrup to top applesauce and coffee cakes! It's wonderful.
