Who Doesn't Love Pancakes?




I love breakfast, especially on the weekends. The sun slanting in through the windows of my tiny, bright kitchen, all day to do nothing but relax (okay, not really but I can dream), and a full morning to feed myself. And maybe share.

A couple of weeks ago I got spontaneous and decided to make Vegan YumYum's "Easy Weekend Pancakes" along with some hash browns. I love when being spontaneous doesn't result in me rushing to the store for that one ingredient I didn't have the foresight to just have. So, this ended up being the perfect recipe for me. And the pancakes are very easy to make (as always) and slightly less easy to make perfect. But their tiny-ness helps! It is always easier for me to make pancakes that are small than to have the patience to let the big ones cook through. I am a very impatient cook.

I also had some frozen berries that I thawed in maple syrup over a medium flame--delicious topping. The hash browns were thanks to my fiance (but I totally could have done em), just a grated potato and some oil, salt, pepper, and high heat. Yum.

Here's a close up of the syrupy berries:
