Cornmeal Pancakes with Bananas and Hazelnuts
- To create the pancake batter use 75%, ¾ cups, pancake mix and 25%, ¼ cup, cornmeal. Add remaining ingredients that the pancake mix calls for. Let sit for about 10 minutes to allow cornmeal to hydrate.
- To a non-stick pan toast the hazelnuts in butter until golden, about 5 minutes. Add a little more butter and sliced bananas. Toss to coat. Turn off heat.
- With a non-stick pan on a medium flame melt butter. Cook pancakes. Once you flip the pancakes to the second side, add the syrup to the pan with the bananas until the syrup is warm.
- To plate your pancakes, spoon the banana, hazelnut, syrup mixture over the top
Peanut Butter Bacon Pancakes

- In the microwave, heat peanut butter for 30-60 seconds until softened.
- To the top of each pancake add a layer of peanut butter, a slice or two of bacon, and warm maple syrup.
Fluffy Meringue Pancakes with Blackberries
- For every 1 cup of dry pancake mix add in 1 whipped egg white and lemon juice. Fold the whipped egg white into the pancake batter, just until combined. Do not over mix the batter. Cook pancakes.
- In a separate small pan add in butter and blackberries. When berries are warm add in maple syrup. Drizzle on top of pancakes.
