Quick Pancakes

Breakfast

FacebookTweetPin
17 Mar

I always think of pancakes as a weekend breakfast food. But this morning I woke up with a raging pancake craving. So, a quick pancake recipe was in order.

I threw 1/2c egg whites, 1/3c oat bran, salt, baking soda & powder, pumpkin pie spice on top of a few tablespoons of pumpkin that was leftover in a tupperware.

I poured some chia seeds on them once they were on the skillet. You can kinda see some on the middle pancake.

peanut syrup

I mixed a Tb. of peanut powder and syrup for a peanut-y icing. Served with iced coffee.

Best mid-week pancake breakfast ever!

Happy St.Patrick’s Day!!!

All my life I have been told I’m Irish because of my red hair. Plus, my last name is Olivas so a lot of “O’livas” jokes were told too. On this day every year I embrace it Smile

SITTIN ON A ROCK

Sorry fellow Spaniards, today I am Irish Winking smile

Are you wearing green? monica with apple

or maybe Green eyeliner? green eye liner

I really should cut myself off from tweeting tonight as to avoid another drunk tweet escapade like the one that happened in Boston!

someecards.com - We decided it would be best to confiscate anything that allows you to tweet or take photos this St. Patricks Day

Q. What green are you wearing?

    I wish I was a bigger fan of pancakes, those look really good 🙂 I’m more of an egg girl myself, i love a good egg sandwich for breakfast.

    I’m wearing a green tech tee from a “Lucky 7” race that I did earlier this month. It even has a shamrock on the front, so it’s perfect! I also have on green socks. 🙂

    Whoa …. w/so few pancake ingredients …. how in the world do you get 3 biggies out of it? Amazing. For sure, I gotta try that combo/recipe tomorrow. Very cool how you incorporate guac into a meal. I like it! Today I am wearing green pants …. sorta like lounging (cozy) ones. Later for dinner, spinach/zukies/carrots, etc. latkes will be frying up in my pan! Tinted Geek-Greek Yo green! Serve em up w/easy-cook applesauce. You can color that green too ~ LOL!! Have a fun day folks.

    Monica …. yep, Marcia is right on!

    Mmm, peanutty/syrup icing. Yum.
    I’m wearing a green shirt and St. Patrick’s Day socks. So is my daughter.
    But as I tell her, ‘we bleed green’ so it doesn’t matter if we wear it on the outside. My maiden name is Kennedy, so I’m clearly Irish, except I look like my Italian grandma. 😉

    Pancakes are totally a viable weekday breakfast! It takes me a shorter amount of time to make them than oatmeal!

    I did some serious drunk tweeting damage on New Years. I wish there was a way to ban access to the site after three drinks 😛
