Every family has a staple pancake recipe. This one is ours. They come out light and fluffy every time and is a perfect recipe to customize. In the fall we add pumpkin spice and a scoop of pumpkin puree. Sometimes we add blueberries and drizzle them in lemon glaze. Â Here is our latest adaptation!
Almond Poppy Seed Pancakes
The result? Pancakes so perfect and delicious that the kids were literally licking their plates. The vanilla glaze was probably to blame there. Our basic recipe for pancakes comes from the Betty Crocker Red Cookbook. Here is how we adapted it to make this delicious dessert breakfast.
Almond Poppy Seed Pancakes With Vanilla Glaze
The batter comes together quickly and makes the fluffiest little pancakes! Brush butter or oil (or a combination of both) on your griddle and pour 1/4 c. of batter for each pancake. Let cook until top of each pancake looks bubbly.
Flip over and cook under bottom is brown.
Vanilla Glaze
You can skip the glaze if you want to, but it really is delicious. Our caramel syrup is also diving drizzled over these pancakes!
Combine butter, vanilla, milk and powdered sugar together. Drizzle over warm pancakes.
