We had this after a baby blessing we went to on Sunday. It was so good. They also had some cinnamon and sugar mixed together to sprinkle over it too. It was so good that I had to share the recipe. They used the Honeyville Farm scone mix and it was to die for.

Dad's Buttermilk Pancakes

A group of us spent the weekend in Bryce Canyon while eight amazing people ran the 1/2 marathon. Rick and I were in charge of Breakfast one morning and this is what we made. I grew up on these Pancakes and my Dad made them almost every Saturday morning. They have made me kind of a pancake snob because they are so yummy. I served them with Misty's Nauvoo Syrup she just posted. She gave me the recipe a while ago and it is amazing. Thanks Misty!

1 cup flour
1 1/2 cups Buttermilk
2 eggs
3 Tbsp. oil
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. Soda
1/2 tsp. Salt

Blend well and pour individually onto a non-stick greased griddle. Turn when bubbles begin to pop. (Golden Brown)
Makes 12-16 Pancakes (If you were there this weekend, I tripled the recipe)

Orange Waffles

Worldwide Ward Cookbook

6 eggs, separated
1/2 tsp. salt
6 oz. orange juice concentrate, thawed (I use a full 12 oz. can)
1/2 c. butter, melted
1/4 c. sugar
3 3/4 c. flour (a little more if you use more OJ)
3 c. milk

In one bowl beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. In a seperate bowl, mix egg yolks, salt, orange juice, butter, and sugar. Beat until smooth. Alternate adding flour and milk. Fold egg whites into batter. Bake in waffle iron.

We top them with strawberries and Nauvoo syrup.

Nauvoo Syrup

1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
1 cup buttermilk
Bring to a boil, remove from heat and add:
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla

Note: I always use a much larger pot-it foams and makes a huge mess if it boils over.

This recipe makes quite a bit. I usually cut it in half or if I make the whole batch put it in the fridge and reheat it a few times and it is just fine.

Hope you like these, they are a favorite of our family. **They are even better with fresh peaches cut up and put on top.
**I usually cook the extra batter and save the waffles and syrup in the fridge then just pop them into the toaster the next day and the are ready to eat.
