Need a special treat for a weekend breakfast? Get out your favorite seasoned iron skillet or purchase one and start a whole new world of cooking. I felt super special recently when a friend made these for my son (age 12) and I. Chris served these pancakes (cooked in the oven, but more like thicker version of crepes) with blueberry syrup, maple syrup, powdered sugar, and a wedge of lemon. A side of sausage and bacon was the perfect touch. Hospitality at its best. Thanks Chris and Darci, you know how to make your house guests feel extra special.
