A final hearty weekend breakfast before heading back to work (and oatmeal!) tomorrow. Yesterday I skipped the bacon and eggs with FH in favor of a green smoothie, so today I wanted to partake in the bacon with some pancakes.
Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Pancakes to be exact.
Elizabeth included this mix with the care package from our cross-border exchange. I had seen it a lot in blogland over the Fall and was super excited to receive it!
Since this was the first time using it, I followed the package directions exactly…adding egg, milk and butter to the dry mix. Next time I’ll try to healthy it up a bit.
The mix smells AWESOME! Nutmeg-y goodness!
The pancakes themselves are a little thin…we like ours a little fluffier…but the texture and taste were good.
I made a mini taster pancake for FH to try to make sure he liked them before serving him a whole plate.
Verdict: “They are good, but I like regular pancakes better.” – FH
But I added bacon to the plates so all was happy!
With coffee.
Now off to run errands, including finally putting my birthday Running Room gift cards to use on a new pair of shoes!
(The snow subsided last night and now it’s all clear to get stuff done!)
