Make a big impression when you present one family-size bacon pancake. The brown sugar adds sweetness that complements the salty bacon. If you can fit more bacon in the skillet and want to add more, go for it. —Mindie Hilton, Susanville, California

I agree with some of the others about it being very sweet. However, I LOVED the pancake being so fluffy. And don't count out this recipe just because you don't have a pan you can bake in as well - I used a skillet to fry the bacon, then put the ingredients into a round cake pan to bake.

This was very simple and very good. Everyone loved the sweet and salty taste of the bacon with the brown sugar.

I made my own pancake batter with whole wheat flour and this was delicious

While this recipe was good, the brown sugar called for was a little too sweet for our taste. We may try it again minus the brown sugar and just add syrup if we need some sweet.

Easy and very good. I was too lazy to invert the whole thing, so I simply cut the pancake into pieces in the skillet and inverted them on individual serving plates. Will be making again--this would be great on a brunch buffet.

<p>Mine turned out perfect! I used a cast-iron skillet and dark brown sugar, so it turned out a bit darker. Just make sure you use the complete pancake mix where you just add water, it will not work with the mix where you need to add eggs/oil/etc. We just added a bit of butter and syrup and it was to die for. Will probably bake a little bit longer next time, but there is no doubt if I will make this again!</p>

Was not real impressed with this recipe. Followed recipe exactly and mine turned out nothing like the picture. Would rather have pancakes and bacon seperately.
