Hope you like them, if you serve them with a fruit preserve, try a liquid consistency preserve, like sour cherry, our favorite.
Also I personally prefer she syrup or preserve on the side, dipping pancakes as I eat them, this way they don't get soggy.

Thank you,dipping is a great idea! I never heard of putting sour cream on pancakes before with preserves. I know I'll Love that. I just put some lite syrup & light whip cream with a sprinkle of cinnamon. I have to get some wheat flour before I can make this. Thanks again for the recipe. Cookie

My Mom made delicious panckes for breakfast when I was a kid. She used to always make two extra large pairs of them to pack in my Dad's lunch-bucket for work. She'd slather with apricot preserves and then sandwich shaved ham & sliced cheddar between them. Dad loved these "Panwiches"!

You don't have to have whole wheat flour - it's just healthier with it. It also gets some crunchier structure when you use it. However you can use only white flower instead.
