Strawberry Hibiscus Pancakes (vegan)

I think hibiscus tastes like crunch berries. And I recently found some hibiscus powder! I’ve been wanting to add it to everything! Hibiscuits and pancakes and scones and cookies. So there will probably more purple food coming up. That’s all. So let’s eat magic pancakes, then go to the farmers market, and then make snow cones. SaturYAY! Strawberry Hibiscus Pancakes Recipe adapted from Betty Crocker Ingredients: 1 flax egg (1 T ground flax seeds + 2 T…

Buttermilk Pancake Ice Cream

You’re the tops! You are the pumpkin marshmallows in my hot cocoa. You’re the gruyere on my Cuban sandwich. You’re the beer with my burger, the prosciutto on my pizza, the jam on my toast. The moral of the story is that you’re the pancakes on my ice cream sundae, ya know? P.S. That lovely cup is from Scout, one of my favorite shops! I kinda want to collect all the purple-y pink iridescent goodness.…

You guys, it’s been summer in Michigan like whoa. And honestly the thought of turning on the oven for ONE WHOLE HOUR to eat banana bread is just too much to bear.

And with a little bit of butter on each warm pancake, they just really and truly taste…

Mini Peanut Butter Ricotta Pancakes

I have absolutely no idea where I’ll be in a year. I’m not sure who my main hang will be or even what’s for dinner tonight. What I do know is that uncertainty can be exciting, brunch should happen every weekend, and ricotta should be in every pancake. I was thinking that I’d go out to Easter brunch this year, but then I started thinking about the pancakes and omelet of my dreams, and figured…

Orange Ricotta Pancakes

Saturday night I had brussel sprouts for dinner. Sunday morning I had these guys. A breakfast fit for Marie Antoinette. If only I would’ve paired pink champagne with this stack of heaven. So there you go! I’m on the vegetable and pancake diet. I’ve wanted to make ricotta pancakes since I had some dreamy ones at Five Leaves in New York. I guess I should be adding ricotta to every pancake I eat from now…

Oatmeal Pancakes

Saturday morning I walked the pup and came home starving only to realize I had a measly amount of cereal, and no bread for toasting. Since I like to start my day with carbs, it was a breakfast emergency. I scavenged around and realized I had just the right amount of stuff to make these oatmeal pancakes! I threw the batter together, and gobbled these up with just enough time to get out the door to…

Double Chocolate Whole Wheat Pancakes

I wake up hungry. Literally I wake up to my stomach growling. So much so, that I honesty considered having a snack pre-breakfast. I opted for one of these right off the griddle to tide me over before I ate the stack of hotties I took pictures of. My sister bought me this griddle for christmas. It’s perfect for pancakes for a crowd, but mostly it’s perfect for pancakes for one! It makes it easier…

The 4th Annual Valentine’s Brunch Party

Happy Valentine’s Day! This year we celebrated with brunch (again)! The flat is currently covered in pink, red, and gold. There are buntings, fringe, and glitter everywhere. I’m pretty sure it’s on my face right now. I was super into painting things gold and fringe, this year. I even gave the table a fringe-y skirt since the craft paper wasn’t wide enough to cover the whole thing. (Lookin’ good, table!) Eventually I put some chili…

Malted Nutella Pancakes :: Ugly Tasty

This morning I made pancakes. I put nutella and malt powder in them. They tasted like heaven, but only two ended up pretty and I ate them. But the problem is that when I flipped them only half flipped, and they just stuck to the pan a lot and then I burnt one. Jake blamed the nutella. I blamed my impatience and the pan for being the fakest nonstick pan ever. (Dishes shmishes.) Don’t worry, Jake…

Blueberry Yogurt Whole Wheat Pancakes + Blueberry Maple Syrup

I live for breakfast on the weekend. Sipping coffee with pancakes on the griddle makes everything better. (Except, I don’t have a griddle; I have a frying pan. And sometimes the pancakes run into each other, and then they look like snowmen.) Do you like my pancakes with their blueberry syrup make-over? Is it too much? No way, these pancakes can totally pull off the bright syrup look. And honestly, there’s no such thing as…
