To my knowledge, what we usually refer to as a "calorie" is scientifically known as a kilocalorie (kCal). I believe it's all the same. Edit to add in a quote: "In the United States, the Nutritional Facts label lists the percentage supplied that is recommended to be met, or to be limited, in one day of human nutrients based…

It's quite good; I actually prefer the taste of them to "regular" pancakes. For toppings, if you like fruit the possibilities are endless. I almost…

Dude. Seriously. WHY ARE THERE NO WANTON WRAPPERS IN MY HOUSE!?!??!

Bump! Thanks for the recipe. I'm already devising how to turn them into pumpkin muffins, too. NOM!
