My friend, Kathleen @Cuisine Kathleen creates the prettiest tablescapes and shares delicious recipes.
Kathleen sent me the cutest set of flower-shaped pancake molds.
It didn’t take me long to make a stack of the sweetest pancakes ever.
And, Bill, (of Affordable Accoutrements) since you were so gracious in your disappointment, should I ever have the opportunity, I will make you your very own stack of pancakes too!
The molds have a hole in the center that leaves a perfect opening for filling with your favorite fruit or compote.

They were different from our regular pancakes ~ more of a spongy texture. Lighter but delicious!
Buttermilk Pancakes
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
- 2 Tbs. sugar
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 4 Tbs. (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 to 2 Tbs. vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray
- Maple syrup for serving
Directions:
In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the eggs on medium speed until frothy. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, buttermilk, melted butter and vanilla. Stir just until the batter is smooth and no lumps of flour remain; do not overbeat.
Heat a griddle over medium-high heat until a few drops of water flicked onto the surface skitter across it. Lightly grease the griddle and the inside surface of the pancake molds with vegetable oil, or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set the molds on the griddle and heat until hot.
Pour batter into each mold. Cook until bubbles form on top and the batter is set, about 2 minutes. Remove the molds and, using a spatula, flip the pancakes. Cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes more. Keep warm until all the pancakes are cooked.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the griddle as needed. Serve with maple syrup.
Makes 12-15 pancakes; serves 4.
Thank you, Kathleen!

Oh my these pancakes look and sound delicious!!! I have had a craving for pancakes lately! I wish I had some of these pretty flower molds! So nice of Kathleen to send them to you! XO, Pinky
Sitting here with my early morning cup of coffee, you can imagine how tempting these pancakes look to me. Makes me want to make the recipe right now. What a pretty presentation.
They make for the most fantastic looking pancakes ever! They are so white and with the way you dressed them, I am just starving. What a plate to sit down to – this would be great for the Royal's breakfast.
These are beautiful! I love the delicate shape, great idea.
I'd love to have you share this recipe on my weekly link-up, Sweet Tooth Friday. I hope to see you there. https://alli-n-son.com/2011/04/28/mint-infused-plum-tarte-tatin/

My goodness those are cute!
These pancakes look so mouthwatering. They are the most beautiful ones I've ever seen. Must be extremely delicious.
The molds are awesome….and not to mention how lovely those pancakes look…never thought i would think pancakes were lovely, but these are just lovely! Where could someone get those molds…are they on the internet or at a specialty shop? Blessings, K
Those are the prettiest pancakes I have ever seen.

Saving this one. It looks so yummy! Thank you!
gorgeous creation, love it.
I've seen molds for eggs but not for pancakes! How cute! I love them whatever shape they are!
Sometimes very thin with crispy brown edges, served piping hot with lots of butter and a bit of sugar ~ that's the way my German Grandma made them, for an evening snack. Or regular with butter and hot maple syrup for breakfast! MMmmmm! It's all good! :~P
They do look light! And delicious! and fantastic.
these are the most beautiful pancake i ever see!
