Cinnamon Bun Pancakes

After a long night of hellish nightmares - I'm talking about terrorists, bombs being dropped from the sky, fleeing with my children underground, and trying to FIND my 72 hour kit in the craziness - nothing could have dispelled the fear faster than whipping up some of THE most delicious pancakes EVAH! 

I came across this recipe VIA my good friend Lynn, who found it at this amazing website:

Real Mom Kitchen

She says they taste like cinnamon buns, and she is wrong.... they taste MUCH BETTER!!! Ooooh la la. The only regret? My husband wasn't here to enjoy them with us. Next time I'm going to double the recipe and have MORE than enough for all of us and more! Try them. You won't be disappointed :)
