Pete's Scratch Pancakes with Pineapple

This pancake recipe is tried and true by a man named Pete's family -- and now my family too!

This recipe comes from Bill Hilbrich who told his story of how he came upon it: "It was the Fall of 1987 when Pete Nyhus walked into our office, just to visit. We started talking about breakfast, and he reached into a wastepaper basket and pulled out a scrap of teletype paper. He wrote out this recipe, and my family has never used pre-mix since." The pineapple is my own touch. It could be substituted for any other type of fruit or even grated carrots or zucchini or candy. They are extremely fluffy and the taste cannot be duplicated out of a box :)

I think this is my last recipe blog for the week. Next week, I should have one for every day!
