Breakfast for dinner is comfort food, don’t you think? I do.
This particular recipe includes fruit, making it a wee bit healthier than plain old pancakes.
That might be wishful thinking.
I like to serve these pancakes with an omelet or sausage patties and a dish of fried apples.
They are delicious, and pairing them with protein and cooked apples makes a perfect dinner.
This recipe is very easy to make gluten-free by substituting Pamela’s Gluten-Free Baking and Pancake Mix for the regular pancake mix. We love Pamela’s and have used it for years!

Cinnamon & apples! My favorite combination! Thanks for this lovely recipe! 🙂
Get ready! Next week, I’ll post cinnamon fried apples. 🙂
Have you tried freezing or refrigerating these? I wonder how well they’d keep. I’d love to do a batch or two to have for my kiddos’ breakfasts.
We do freeze our pancakes to reheat later. Just lay them in a single layer on a sheet of waxed paper on top of a cookie sheet. When they’re frozen solid, you can stack and put them in a zip top bag. Reheat for about 30 seconds in the microwave. 🙂
All I need is coffee, syrup and butter.
Oh these sounds AMAZING! I am going to have to try these soon!
These sound great! I love to add fruit to stuff since my kids barely eat any veggies anymore. Fruits the next best thing I think! Btw, I liked you on FB as my page and as myself 🙂
