The Best Pancakes I’ve Ever Had

We got snow last Saturday, so of course Jad had to make pancakes. 😉 Instead of making the usual pancakes filled with chocolate chips, he went to his Arabic roots and tried something different. Imagine an on-the-crispy-side cinnamon/sugar pancake. That’s basically what they tasted like. They were addicting for sure. Here is the recipe to the best of Jad’s recollection:

Pancakes

• One cup sugar

• Four cups pancake mix

• Teaspoon of cinnamon

• One egg

• Water

Directions

1. Sift together the sugar, pancake mix, and cinnamon.

2. Add one egg and enough water to make good a consistency (not too thick or runny).

3. Mix well.

4. Scoop batter onto a well-buttered griddle and cook until the pancakes start to get crispy.

Syrup

• Cup sugar

• Cup water

Directions

1. Mix sugar and water together and bring to boil.

2. Remove from heat, add a drop or so of lemon juice, and mix together.

Topping

• Cup of powdered sugar

• 1 tbsp cinnamon

Directions

1. Mix ingredients together.

2. Sift over pancakes as a topping along with the syrup.
