I grew up without eating pancakes since my mom would always make her thin crepes (which we loveee!). A bit older, I would always try to avoid eating pancakes because I thought I didn’t like them. Now that I think of it, it’s probably because I ate pancakes at Mc Donald’s once and was forever traumatized!
A couple of years ago, I decided to try to make them myself because everyone around me seemed to just love pancakes! Turns out, pancakes are amazing when you have a good recipe! I found the following recipe on www.Allrecipe.com and it’s delish! The person who posted the recipe found this recipe in her grand mother’s recipe book! I has to be good! π Old fashioned Pancakes!
Since I am doing an “Apple Week”, I chose to make pancakes with Buttery Apples to put of top! It’s a feast people!!!
