Frontier Flapjacks

Hello Friends! I'm excited to share another pancake recipe with you. Unlike my usual recipes, this one relies on a box mix called Kodiak Cakes Frontier Flapjack and Waffle Mix Non GMO Whole Wheat, Oat & Honey. The company writes that flapjacks were the hearty mainstay of frontiersmen from the Yukon to the High Sierra. These mountain men and homesteaders relied on a traditional flapjack that combined the rich, substantial taste of whole wheat with the mellow taste of whole grain oats. The flapjack has protein, fiber and very little fat. Kodiak Cakes have been featured in Weight Watchers, Vegetarian Times, Martha Stewart Living and a bunch of other publications. The ingredients on the box are all natural. (I'm not being paid to write this review. I stumbled upon this product while looking for a good, whole grain pancake mix).

Fluffy Lemon Ricotta Pancakes

My devotion to pancakes runs deep. These light and fluffy lemon ricotta cakes are numero uno. They're easy to prepare too! No whipping egg whites or melting butter is involved. In fact, sometimes laziness completely takes over and I mix everything in one bowl. Swap the maple syrup for honey and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and you're in for an extra special treat. They're delicious with my quick honeyed-strawberry sauce too. If you love pancakes, I hope you give this recipe a try.

The Best Buttermilk Pancakes

I adore pancakes. I've tried endless recipes. This recipe produces the best, easy, golden-brown, light and fluffy discs I've ever tasted. No whipping egg whites. No melting butter. Just mix and make. The search is over!

Simple is best here. There's no need for mix-ins. In fact, they're better without them. Light brown sugar makes them golden brown with caramel notes. But, regular sugar is just fine too. A pinch of freshly grated nutmeg or cinnamon gives them a cozy flavor. A nostalgic stack of buttermilk pancakes with real maple syrup makes mornings better. Brew a fresh pot of coffee (French press for me) and get flipping!

Fluffy Church Cookbook Pancakes

After my husband and I moved from Philadelphia to Boston, I started working at a crisis center. I was oriented by a bright and pretty art therapist. Kind and sincere, she eased my fears. She made me feel welcome. We talked about cooking and traveling which was a welcome diversion from the intense work. 

Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes

While browsing my favorite used book store in a little town just outside Boston, I picked up  Vegetarian Planet at a bargain price. I would have paid more for this cookbook just for this one recipe. After my first bite of buckwheat pancakes, I said a silent thank you to the author for creating such a beautiful recipe.

These pancakes are high in protein from the addition of Greek yogurt that’s mixed into the batter. The yogurt also makes them incredibly moist which is needed in whole grain pancakes. High in fiber, key flavonoids, anti-oxidants as well as very light and airy, buckwheat pancakes surprised me with their appealing texture and taste.
