My all time favorite pancake recipe from a cute little breakfast book called Pancake and Waffles by Lou Seibert Pappas. To make them patriotic I add some blueberries and garnish with strawberries. It's a great summer breakfast and fun to make on a beautiful Sunday, as it was today. You make them from scratch so no box mixture here!
