Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes

September 11, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 20 Comments

Hi Everyone!

I am so excited!  Today is my 2 year blog birthday!!!!  I can’t believe I have been blogging for two years!!  Two wonderful years!!  You know what they say “to keep trying things and you’ll find your calling.”  I spent my life trying a bunch of different things like making soaps and lotions, candles, gardening and so on.  It wasn’t until I fell in love with cooking and baking that I really felt complete.  Blogging has given me so much emotionally and so many different opportunities that I would never have dreamed of.  Blogging has become a big part of my life and I am a happier person for it!  So to celebrate my blog birthday I am keeping with my tradition and making pancakes!

Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes
I know your probably thinking, why pancakes? That’s not really a birthday blog kind of thing to make! Where’s the sprinkles? Where’s the cake? How about the frosting and candles? Well the reason I make pancakes is because my very first post was Whole Wheat Greek Yogurt Pancakes. I didn’t change the post at all and if you read it, you can see I have come a little bit further. One picture and one tiny post! But it’s a special post to me!

Whole Wheat Yogurt Pancakes

For my first year blog birthday I made my Whole Wheat Yogurt Apple Pancake. Oh baby this is a good pancake.  it tastes like apple cake!!  Yum!!  As you can see the pictures got a little better especially since my Husband changed the lighting in my kitchen and I got a new camera. I can only hope that my photography gets better.


Whole Wheat Apple Yogurt Pancake

So to celebrate the tradition continues and today I bring you Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes. Oh baby! My Husband said this is the best blog birthday breakfast ever!! I kind of agree!!! I got the idea of Bacon pancakes from watching Man vs Food. He was in Colorado and they served a big bacon pancakes topped with an egg! An egg, crazy, so crazy I had to do it!!!
Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes
Egg, pancakes, bacon and maple syrup are a wonderful, tasty, sweet, savory combination and sure to please, especially a bacon person!!! My Husband saw his plate and said WOW, I never had eggs and pancakes like this!! Well, duh! It’s my blog birthday and it’s a day of fun!!! So let’s have fun with food, while still keeping it healthy!!
Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes
The pancakes turned out, light, fluffy and crispy! The crispiness comes from the bacon! Man, what a great combo! To add some flair of flavor, I added maple extract to the pancakes, so you wouldn’t need as much or if any maple syrup. I admit, I added maple syrup to mine, but my Husband preferred his without.  After all maple syrup is the calorie killer when it comes to pancakes, especially my pancakes. I used to use the sugar free maple syrup and you Guys told me, that it’s not healthy, don’t use that. Well I listened! Your right, sugar-free maple syrup is processed and made with Splenda and I personally do not like Splenda. Your body can process natural things more easier than man made food! So thank you! I read your comments and never looked back!
Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes
So bacon in pancakes! Your probably thinking this is not healthy at all! Well I used only two slices of bacon, which was 70 calories and low sodium. It’s Whole Foods brand and you don’t even notice that it’s low sodium. Love that! The recipes makes 5 decent size pancakes and comes in at 298 calories for 2 1/2 pancakes. I hate when I make things and the numbers come out uneven. I used a heaping cup of batter when making the pancakes, but if you go just shy of a 1/4 cup, you should get 6 pancakes. I really went generous on my batter!

Maple Bacon Whole Wheat Pancakes
I am so excited today is PBandP’s birthday!! I have not missed one post in two years of blogging. I tell myself every year to cut back a little, but when I feel I may miss a post, it kind of gives me anxiety. So stupid, I know! But I can’t help it! I have so much fun! I want to THANK YOU!!! If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be here. I wouldn’t have found what I have been missing.  Now that I have been blogging I have goals and dreams I want to achieve, so THANK YOU!!!  Really, it is you, that is why I am here!

So please celebrate with me today!   You can make a PBandP recipe, if you do, e-mail me a picture at [email protected] and I’ll post it, you don’t need a blog to do it, just a picture from your phone will do!!  Or if you don’t want to make a recipe, do something healthy, go for a walk, laugh and enjoy life.

Well, time to get my next recipe going!  Thank you again!!!  You really have no idea how grateful I am to you!  🙂

Cheers to another two years!!  Or more!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Happy, happy, happy blog birthday!! I didn’t get to my email until very late today because this morning we led a tour at the park, and this afternoon I had to make tortillas and dinner. No PB&P recipe, unfortunately, but our time at the park was very healthy, climbing around on rocks. Plus we got caught in a heavy downpour and were watching waterfalls on the rocks in the middle of the Chihuahuan Desert. That was a really special experience. A perfect way to celebrate your blog birthday.

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol
