How about some pancakes on this beautiful Sunday! Yesterday was 90 degrees and sunny in San Antonio and I could totally tell that it was drawing everyone outside (myself included). Sorry to the folks up in the New England area who are still getting snow dumped on them :/ BTW, springing forward kicked my butt this morning when I tried to get out of bed…so pancakes seem totally fitting. And why not throw a little booze in there? If you don’t have any Kahlua sitting around, you can certainly use some cooled coffee instead, but the Kahlua has such a great flavor in these pancakes that it’s totally worth trying.
This recipe makes about 3 servings of three x 3″ pancakes, but you could just make it serve two or I suppose even one person could crush these alone if they’ve got a serious appetite! And the PB whip you see here is only about 1/3 of how much the recipe makes…but I couldn’t smother the pancakes in it before their photo shoot.
Happy forking!
