Every family has that one go to dish that they make all the time and ours in no different. We make ours so much that Matley, our six year old, can basically make them all by himself. It's nothing fancy, but you can jazz them up countless different ways. I mean seriously the possibilities are endless. What is this amazing go to dish you ask? Pancakes. That's right pancakes! Think about it for a second. You can put basically anything in/on pancakes. Everything from maple syrup, to freshly squeezed lemon juice and sugar, to whip cream and strawberries, to peanut butter, raspberries, and honey, to cinnamon and brown sugar caramelize apples.... The list goes on. But none of that deliciousness can happen if you don't have a solid base and as much as I want to say this is my recipe, it's not. It's my mother-in-laws recipe. But it makes such light, fluffy pancakes that I absolutely had to share!
