Where's My Plate? (Brunch)

When I eliminated the maple syrup in the pancake batter recipe, I thought I'd be adding that much plus more to the top of the pancake.  But the caramelized bananas did not need more sweetening. . .   The recipe is from Rachael Ray's Healthy Brunch makeover.

Now to explain the blog post title:
Even though I'd reminded my husband I was making blueberry pancakes, he ate, went out and returned just in time to eat with me.  After he ate one platter, I put his plate in the sink to keep the blueberry stains from setting-and he returned to eat another pancake!  When he asked about the plate-I told him just to use the serving plate. 
DH Serving = 5 pancakes
Cindy Serving = 2 pancakes
