Thin Pancakes
"A great recipe for those who do not like sponges posing as pancakes. These pancakes come out a little thicker than crepes would be."

I love these pancakes! I added 1/8 cup more flour to batter and mixed up in my blender. Easy to pour onto griddle. I think I could easily decrease the butter to 2 TBS. but I made it as stated. Everyone in the house loved them. This is added to my cookbook called, "Best of Zaar so Far" Thanks! -
I love this pancake recipe so much! I'm not a fan of thick fluffy pancakes. I found the amount of flour was perfect for the thin style pancake I've been searching for. Was so crispy and creamy at the same time. Only tweak I made was adding a tbsp of sugar. Thank you so much this will be my normal pancake recipe from here on out!

I have been looking for a thin pancake recipe for a long time. I love this as it is thin, but not eggy or crepey....if I wanted that, I'd make crepes.... Thanks so much..I did increase flour an 1/8 cup more and threw frozen blueberries in too. Love this.....I'm posting in my inside cupboard door for easy access. :) -
I added 1 tsp of Vanilla extract and increased the flour to 1 full cup. Great recipe and less spongy means you don't have to use nearly as much syrup. -
Absolutely delicious, they're just like the pancakes my grandmother used to make.

Great recipe with 3 tweaks: Use SCANT cup milk (full cup too much) Add Vanilla - maybe 1.5t, to wet ingredients A bit of extra flour - maybe 2-3T. (I also used my immersion blender to get the lumps out & they rose up fine) -
I loved how these tasted! That being said, I found the batter to be so loose (even adding an additional 1/4 cup of flour as suggested by other reviewers) that it was really hard to work with. I did these in a 12" skillet as we don't have a griddle, and wound up cooking them more like crepes - making 2 giant "pancakes" instead. I followed the directions exactly with the exception of adding more flour, so not sure what happened. I'll play around with it a little bit next time, since they tasted so awesome and I loathe spongey pancakes!
