So, I’m kind of up to something at the moment. Mums the word, but I’ll be sharing the deets soon, I promise. In the meantime, I’m treating you to these summer-inspired Graham Cracker Pancakes!
There’s Always Time for Breakfast
If you know me, you know I’m a creature of habit, especially when it comes to breakfast. I religiously eat 2 pieces of whole wheat toast with peanut butter and jelly with ground flax seed sprinkled on top EVERY DAY. Oh my, it seems so wrong and I can’t believe I do it either, but it’s seriously the only thing that works for me. I need sustainable energy, and this breakfast wins every time!
But, There’s the Weekend
Ok, so yes, I adore that toast, but yes, of course I’m human and sometimes I do want to switch it up. Granted that only happens about 1 time each week, but hey, that’s just me. So, when I get “crazy” I go for pancakes, waffles or eggs. You can’t beat those breakfast foods, can you? I know, they are so good. And while I love the trusted and true recipes, I like to branch out.
Graham Cracker Pancakes
To bust out of toast rut, I always like to experiment when it comes to the weekend breakfast. Now don’t let me fool you, I’m not throwing crickets or anything in my food, but I just like something a little different. So, in honor of summer and my love for graham crackers, I’ve made you some pretty tasty and easy to love Graham Cracker Pancakes! Oh yes I did. And I guarantee you’ll love them. And go crazy, top them with chocolate and marshmallow Fluff. Or just top with a little drizzle of pure maple syrup. Or my personal fav, with a swipe of peanut butter and some sliced strawberries! Yum!
