Breakfast . . . Mmmm! My husbands favorite meal of the day! There seriously is nothing like a great breakfast . . . especially on the weekends when the stress and craziness of the week has your eyes rolling around in your head and your mind is ready to shut down! At our house my hubby is the king of Saturday morning breakfast . . . and he goes to town!!! I am not an egg girl or a huge fan of pancakes . . . but if they have buttermilk syrup on them I will take them anyday! This buttermilk syrup recipe is a FAVORITE on both sides of our family!!! I could drink the stuff! It is SOOOOO GOOD!!! Last weekend we whipped up a batch of heavenly ricotta pancakes to pair with it and mensch was it good! The pancakes are delish! So light and moist! I actually love them (Never thought that I would say that about a pancake . . .) This Buttermilk Syrup recipe is from my Aunt Alyson of Caramel Popcorn fame! It is amazing!!!

1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the sugar, buttermilk, and vanilla. Cook and stir until thick. Add the baking soda, stir and serve warm.

Buttermilk syrup sounds delicious. I've always felt that pancakes aren't complete without buttermilk, but I never thought about adding it to the syrup! Yum.
I've never used ricotta in pancakes..I can only imagine how good it is!
Ever since, I had Ricootta in cookies, I know how good it makes anything sweet so these pancakes must be the best. I have to try these.
I'll have to try those, sounds and looks so yummy!
