I enjoyed this recipe. I was a little skeptical about the peanut butter at first. I thought it would make the pancake batter too heavy, thick, and sweet. I mixed the peanut butter in very well and the pancakes came out light, fluffy, with a light peanut butter taste. I served this to my family with maple syrup and raspberries. It was delicious.
Peanut Butter Pancakes
Conventional chunky peanut butter works best in this recipe; the natural-style peanut butter (ground peanuts and oil) is difficult to stir into a liquid batter. Serve these with the Strawberry-Lemon Syrup, the Raspberry-Honey Coulis, or any kind of jam.
