I usually try to make three new recipes a week--three recipes that I've never made before, but sound interesting or different or just delicious. Of the recipes I try and tweak with, only about half make it onto this blog. A lot are 'just ok' dishes and occasionally some are really just bad, so I try to only post the ones that I feel were really a success.
Several weeks ago, I came across a recipe for "the best pancakes ever" blah, blah. I was intrigued because the recipe used sour cream, so I gave them a try. Result? Fluffy, moist, and disgusting. So I admit that when I saw the recipe for these Cinnamon Bun Pancakes soon thereafter, I thought the title was probably an exaggeration. Pancakes that taste and smell like cinnamon rolls? I mean, really?
Yeah. They do. They are fantastic. I couldn't resist making a simple glaze to drizzle over them, but it wasn't necessary and, actually, I think detracted from the pancakes themselves. What they really need to be served with--the very thought, of which, is making me salivate at this moment--is this Carameled Apple Syrup. Skip the cranberries, add raisins or nuts, if you wish, and have a generous helping of this syrup over these pancakes. I guarantee a smile on your face.
