My teeth hurt looking at this. Not my thing at all but it's a winner in the sweet and syrupy breakfast category.

Even for me with a sweet tooth, that's too much maple syrup. I'm just ignore the butter.

Where's the fruit?

We had pancakes today also. Mine were much smaller, and no syrup. I made a slightly sweet mixed berry compote to top the "stack" (2 pancakes each) and about 2 TBSP of honey on top of the compote (not even enough for it to drip off the edges of the top pancake). Maybe 1 tsp of butter that was melted on each pancake just before removing from the pan...

SatNavSaysStraightOn you don't use a little vegan butter on your pancakes?

@SatNavSaysStraightOn you don't use a little vegan butter on your pancakes?

I think it's the saturated fat that doesn't appeal rather than the type of butter.

This tends to be the way we serve pikelet stacks (predictive text us insisting i have pikelet attacks) in this house.

I use a pikelet recipe my Grannie have me. Think thicker drop scone recipe.

Corn flour pancakes for breakfast with strawberry jam, this morning the batter was really good and smooth.

I’ll take it!

And, as usual, I’ve done some research and found the original lyrics to John Mellencamp’s “Hurt So Good:”

Hurt so good
Made my pancakes as sweet as I could
My teeth are throbbing like I knew they would
It makes them hurt so good

 

[TastyReuben]

Where's the fruit?

I’m pleased to say that I have an answer for you!

These are orange-flavored pancakes (probably my favorite variation), so there’s 1/3rd cup of OJ and orange zest in the batter!

Loaded scrambled eggs on top of a piece of fried bread:

Breakfast was Trader Joe's pumpkin pancakes (GF mix) with butter and syrup, and corned beef hash

IT was too early to take a pic, and with too many morning routine tasks to perform within a time limit, but fried bread, 1 poached egg, few slices of jäger fried, few sips of coffee.
And I made it to the train on time, so yey.

That looks really good. What kind of maize flour do you use? Over here we've got white, or yellow.

Yellow maize flour.

I made a JAS signature overstuffed American style omelet with bacon, peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, goat cheese, cheddar cheese, and American cheese. It looked like the others I have posted in the past, although it did break a little when I folded over the top (9-10 times it doesn't). It was yummy as usual. Before the omelet I had 1 cup of black tea with cinnamon and honey, then 1 cup of coffee with vanilla caramel creamer, and then I ate 1/3 of the omelet (DH had the other 2/3rds). Now I am having another cup of coffee because I feel like I am going to fall asleep. I hope this doesn't mess with me later. I don't normally have caffeine this late.
