Orange Pecan Buttermilk Pancakes

Orange Pecan Buttermilk Pancakes

These orange pecan buttermilk pancakes were made, again, by special request. So many of you asked me for the recipe and I always try to make everyone happy. Here is one of my guests' favorite recipes. Hope you love them. BTW, those giant pecans are actually from one of our trees. Love, Susan
