I love Breakfast for dinner too. Why limit yourself or your palate to a certain time to eat a certain food. Who doesn’t have pancake mix or all of the ingredients to make pancakes right? Just make certain you don’t forget the syrup. However, the grocery stores offer plenty of options.
I believe we all tend to stick to what we grew up having as a kid, until we want to implement something a little healthier. In my house, it was Aunt Jemima Original syrup. As an adult today, I like to use a good grade of organic maple syrup.
The Valentine’s Pancake recipe that I made was simple. It takes no time at all to pull out a bowl, gather your ingredients and get a whisk and whisk away. I am old fashioned that way. I like how both my grandmothers kept it simple. They didn’t need all of the fancy schmancy gadgets that we use today.
Don’t get me wrong. I love certain fancy schmancy gadgets too, but I also love going back to my roots. That was the legacy they left me, and I am so appreciative for their love and of course, cultivating my love of food.
I truly hope you will make these Valentine’s Pancakes. Of course, you can spread Love and Joy anytime of the year, because you are creating memories that will be etched in someone’s heart and soul, that will truly last a Lifetime. Happy Valentine’s Day!
