Author Notes
This is a typical story of a morning pancake crave. I dreamed about them the night before and had to have the best. By whipping the egg white and using powdered sugar, the fluffiness of the pancakes is amazing! As an alternative use different fruit for the filling, yogurt, syrup, or jam for the topping. Either way, enjoy these airy, fluffy rounds of deliciousness! —Mariya
