Million Dollar Pancakes
In the past,
I've proven to be a bit controversial.
{e.g: my displeasure with cheese}
Today, I'm back with another divisive statement:
I think pancakes are gross.
While they may be cute in theory,
they are a soggy mess of bread, butter, and syrup
in real life.
But like cheese and olives,
I'm trying.
So I've found a few spin-offs of the classic pancake
that not only have me willing...
but excited to whip out the old griddle!
While these may seem the same as your standard pancake,
I can't wait to try this out.
Not only are they far prettier,
but I love that these pancakes have more crispy edges
to withstand the soggy fate of a fluffy pancake.
Chocolate shavings, espresso powder in the batter,
marscapone cheese filling...
I would be so tricked by these that I might even eat it for dessert.
I think that is frosting instead of syrup...
which tricks my mind into thinking it's a giant cake donut...
but with funfetti sprinkles.
So I love it.
Obviously, these are a bit ridiculous...
but hey... they are vegan,
so they can't be too bad, right?
I guess not ALL pancakes are gross.
{just plain ones that get real mushy...}
To be honest,
I did love a good Cory Cake from Legal Grounds
when we lived in Dallas
{Pancake with granola, strawberries, banana, and apple praline syrup.}
And I do have a recipe for a mutation of a pancake
that I can not wait to share with you later this month.
It's loaf-ier and saltier...
and probably involves bacon.
You may name your first kid after me once you try it.
Or not.
Either way, you'll like it.
