Except for the soymilk it sounds delicious! My recipe is the same as
yours except that I only use one teaspoon of baking powder to one cup
of flour so they wouldn't be as bubbly. The last two batches of
pancakes I've made have pretty much turned out perfect... I think it's
sheer dumb luck! But the new stove might have something to do with
it... now that I think about it, I hadn't made pancakes for about a
year before that, and we got our new stove six months ago.

Try putting an individual serve of applesauce into them, and some
chopped pecans (if you've got any). Yum!
