B is for Buttermilk Syrup

Delicious Buttermilk Syrup is great on any pancakes.  But, my favorite is on pumpkin pancakes topped with roasted pecans in the fall, and on whole wheat pancakes topped with fresh berries on the 4th of July!

Here's the how-to ~

Buttermilk Syrup

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 Tbls. Karo Syrup
1/2 cup butter

boil together (use a large pot, it will grow)  for 1 minute and then add:

1 teaspoon vanilla &
1/2 teaspoons baking powder

Use immediately or store in fridge for up to 2 weeks

Nothing is better on a crisp, fall, Saturday morning than yummy {and healthy} whole wheat pancakes!

to this ~

to yum!

Here's the how-to !

dry::
1 cup freshly ground whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons Splenda (or sugar)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup skim milk
1 egg (beaten slightly)
1 tablespoon melted butter; cooled (optional)
