YUM! You tell me we are making pancakes and my household gets super excited! I made so many of these delicious treats I have them wrapped individually and frozen for when my kids need a quick breakfast treat :D My boys - all 3 of them love pancakes and who could resist making breakfast - the most important meal of the day.

I ended up adding strawberries to my classical pancakes and then made a strawberry-wine (non alcoholic) reduction maple syrup. Talk about delicious. I could have used the syrup over a banana sundae!! I'm not going to lie though - I will probably make this syrup again with my wine I have in the fridge instead of the cooking wine. I bet it will taste great and to be honest a lot of the alcohol will cook off in the pan.

Either way though - great pick from Jesse. If you want the recipe for either the pancakes or the syrup or both - you can go to her BLOG and find everything there!! Thanks Jesse for being a great host this week! This was a major hit in my house!!!

Here are a few pictures from my baking the pancakes and syrup. For some reason I ended up adding a little milk to make my batter a little thinner because my buttermilk was being obnoxious and made my batter thick. All-in-all though the pancakes were wonderful!
