My family liked this pancake. My husband liked it the most and it was very easy to make. – Reviewed by Diane Cenci
Kids & grandkids came for the weekend so we tried it. So simple, tastes like French toast, sides were approximately 3-4" high. Would make again. – Anonymous Review
Served this with a fried apple sauce and German sausages for brunch. Very easy and very tasty. We live at an altitude of 8,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains and did not need to make altitude adjustments. – Reviewed by KEVIN SIGLINGER
A real taste treat for a Sunday morning breakfast, when I am the chef. I had not had anything as good since I was a child growing up in PA. Served with scrapple, it will satisfy the most discriminating palate. We shall be having this for breakfast tomorrow morning. – Reviewed by Robert W. Jaross
