These pancakes look delicious, but I haven't tried them yet. What I have tried, and absolutely love, is the Cinnamon Syrup! It is so good! I love cinnamon and pretty much anything with cinnamon, and this syrup definitely fits the bill. I made this syrup with some simple french toast, and it definitely brought breakfast to a whole new level. I am already planning to have this again!
