The flavor of these was exactly what I was looking for. Just like grabbing your fluffy pancakes and syrup without needing a plate. They're smooth and moist. I didn't add the topping and I don't really think they need it. Any more sugar would be to much in my opinion. I added 1 tsp maple extract along with the vanilla as well. I think this would be even better in a loaf form and I'm going to try that the next time. Big slices spread with butter :) Next time I'll probably try this with self rising flour or double the baking powder since they didn't rise quite as much as I'd like. I'd also like to try them with half butter/half shortening. Either way they're scrumpious!

I am blessed with a wonderful dh and four fantastic, crazy children. I am a stay at home mom who works from son up till son down.
My favorite cookbook is not one that I cook with very often, it actually sits on top of my pantry propped up in an old basket. The cookbook was given to my grandmother just prior to her marriage to my grandfather and it has the family prayer and some recipes that my great-grandmother penned in her own hand inside. It is called All About Home Baking.
