WHAT'S FOR BREAKY?

My kids LOVE hot breakfasts'. Not that I make them one every morning, but when I do, they get really excited. Actually, one thing that I make more often than not, (because it's fast and easy) are pancakes. Not from scratch, just the simple Bisquick mix. However, I am looking for a great recipe. Do any of you have one that you can share?

As you can see here, some of my troops are ready to eat!

The night before, I made some banana muffins, so yah, we were carb'd out that morning!

Look at that fluffy goodness! Perfect every time! Gotta have the powdered sugar!

  3. Every Friday I make chocolate chip pancakes for the kids I nanny for. We call it Pancake Friday. They used to drag getting up in the morning on Fridays because they were so exhausted from the week at that point but now they get up in a hurry for "Pancake Friday"!

  6. Sprinkle some blueberries in the batter before you "cook" them. That's what my MIL did with some of the blueberries we picked last summer and the hotcakes were selling like, well, hotcakes!

  12. My boys love their pancakes with lots of honey and butter on them.

    My neighbour adds yoghurt and fruits to the batter.

  16. Every Sunday, my daughter and husband make blueberry pancakes. Whatever we don't eat, we freeze and eat throughout the rest of the week. Here's the basic recipe: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Hannahs-Pancakes-231584

  18. Funny...I've had homemade pancakes and I grew up with the pre-made (bette crocker/bisquick) and I like the premade better...uniform taste...but we've never tried powered sugar...what a great idea!

  20. I'm gonna start sending my kids to your house for breakfast...you can pick them up at the BART station, right?

    Every once in awhile, I'll add fresh blueberries to our pancakes but that's as exciting as it gets around here!

  35. You have a beautiful family! We like to spice up our pancakes... a spoon of canned pumpkin & cinnamon sugar, mini chocolate chips, mini m&m's,or warm apples with cinnamon sugar.... Your pancakes look SO fluffy and yummy! Mine are always flat! Scrambled eggs in tortillas are a favorite too! enjoy!
