When food editor Lillian Chou was faced with creating a recipe to use up the scant cup of sour cream left over from our Ravioli with Green Beans and Prosciutto , she immediately thought of pancakes. She knew that the sour cream would act like buttermilk to produce a very tender texture. But the eureka moment came when she thought to combine some of the sour cream with maple syrup and butter for a topping. The result is the color of café au lait, with the tang of sour cream playing off the syrup's deep sweetness.

Steps:
- Make syrup:
- Heat all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until butter has melted.
- Make pancakes:
- Preheat oven to 200°F.
- Whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together sour cream, milk, egg, and melted butter (2 tablespoons), then whisk into flour mixture.
- Brush a 12-inch nonstick skillet with melted butter and heat over medium heat until hot. Working in batches, pour a scant 1/4 cup batter per pancake into skillet and cook until bubbles appear on surface and undersides are golden brown. Flip and cook other side, about 1 minute. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in oven. Lightly butter skillet between batches.
- Serve pancakes with warm syrup.
