Gingerbread Pancakes

December 25, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 14 Comments

Merry Christmas everyone!!

Still stumped on what to make for breakfast today?  I have for you a simple, holiday breakfast that will please the kids and adults of all ages in your family.

Gingerbread Pancakes

These are my Gingerbread Pancakes made with cinnamon, cloves, ginger and molasses to give it the gingerbread flavor.  These pancakes are not overly sweet, but I found them to be perfect.  They are light, fluffy and healthy for you!!!   It seems whenever there is a holiday, my mind gravitates towards making pancakes.  I think pancakes are a happy food!

Gingerbread Pancakes


This batch makes six scant 1/4 cup size pancakes, but you can always double up the recipe, if your feeding more than two people.  For me, it was just me, so I feed a pancake to each of my dogs and I ate the rest.  I know, I know, feeding dogs people food is bad, but these are healthy and it’s a treat!  Boy, you should have seen their faces light up when I said do you want a pancake?  Too cute!!   I should have taken a picture.

Gingerbread Pancakes

I originally was going to cut out the pancakes and make them into Gingerbread Men but I figured on Christmas morning, you may not have time.  Speaking of time, I want to take the time to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.   May you snack on good food, laugh and be with Friends and Family!

Merry Christmas!

Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  Update, want to see my early Christmas present from Mother Nature?  Go below the pancake picture to see what I got!

Gingerbread Pancakes

Glad you stopped by to see what I got.  First a little story.  In my backyard, my vegetable garden is fenced in because Sampson (my dog), keeps trying to get to my vegetables.  Well not only does he try to get in, he dug several holes under the fence so he can get in there.  We have sand as our soil, so it’s easy to dig up.  I swear I am always covering the  holes back up.  Well on Christmas Eve, little Jenny yelled at Sampson and told him to get out of the garden.  She said, Jen, he’s eating something orange.  I thought, oh no, the hot peppers!  This is what he was eating, ready???

sweet potato 002

Yup, those are his teeth marks.  Your probably wondering what that is.  Well remember back when I was growing this in a glass?  You can check the post out here from March.

randone-things-003

My Husband said, Jen what are you going to do with that?  Get rid of it, so I did!  I dug a hole in the garden and planted it!  I didn’t think anything of it.  I could see it was growing all over the place, but I never gave it any thought as to it actually growing a potato.  It was an organic sweet potato from Trader Joe’s.  It was getting roots on it so I stuck it in water, just to see if it would do anything and it did, it got more roots.  Put it in the ground, saw leaves and that was it until now.  Thanks to my bad dog Sampson, I or should I say he discovered my sweet potatoes.  Look at how many I got, and there maybe more coming.  This is off one potato I planted.

None of the other ones were as big as the one Sampson was eating (figures, huh), so my guess is that may have been the main potato I planted?  Since I just dug these up like an hour ago, I have no idea how they taste, but I imagine they are going to be great!  Nothing beats an organic sweet potato from your own garden.  I am so proud of myself and I didn’t do a thing!!  🙂  I love when I get good surprises!!!

I just had to share this with you today, since I was excited for my surprise.  Oh and in case you’re wondering, I am not going to eat the potato my dog was chewing on, I just had to show you how big it was and it was the start of my story.

Merry Christmas!!

    Hi – these look amazing – our family will love them! Question – is there anything different to do if I need to make a lot more? We have six hungry kids who love pancakes, my husband and I and my mother. Do I just multiply for more? Thanks very much! Merrie

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.
🌻
My beautiful “Summer” cutout sign is from @krumpetshomedecor and it’s also the deal of the week. You get an extra 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link is in my bio.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle. 
🌻
Do you you like to go to the Farmers Market?

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
