Add a dollop to the batter for extra light, fluffy cakes, or top finished pancakes with a spoonful of cheese, a drizzle of honey, and freshly ground black pepper.<\/li>\n<li>Add dried or fresh, grated ginger to your batter, along with winter spices like cardamom and cinnamon, for a warming kick.<\/li>\n<li>Instead of serving links on the side, stir cooked, chopped pieces or thin slices into the batter.<\/li>\n<li>Swirl creamy or crunchy peanut butter into your batter&#8230;and serve with a topping of jelly!<\/li>\n<li>Add cooked, chopped pieces of bacon to the batter, or pour batter over whole slices of cooked bacon in the skillet.<\/li>\n<li>Add shredded carrots, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to batter for a healthy take on carrot cake (and of course, cream cheese would be a great topping).<\/li>\n<li>Add a splash of OJ to your pancake batter for a citrusy kick, or mix in a spoonful of zest.<\/li>\n<li>Almost any pancake can benefit from the addition of chocolate chips&#8230;and there&#8217;s no reason to stop there. Chocolate sprinkles, chocolate sauce, and cocoa powder all make great mix-ins or toppers.<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re already a connoisseur of chocolate chip pancakes, add a handful of butterscotch chips to mix up your sweet pancake routine.<\/li>\n<li>Substitute yogurt (regular,Greek, plain or flavored) for the milk or buttermilk in your favorite pancake recipe. If the batter seems too thick, thin with a splash of water.<\/li>\n<li>A handful of corn kernels (frozen or fresh) makes for a surprisingly sweet pop in pancakes\u2014both savory and sweet versions. You can also try subbing in cornmeal for part of the flour.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t stop at fresh or frozen fruit\u2014dried fruit, like raisins, make great pancake mix-ins too.Blueberries are expected, but not their fruity counterparts like peaches. Use fresh, frozen, or canned varieties.<\/li>\n<li>If all you want is a little twist, add a few banana slices to a half cooked pancake on the griddle&#8230;easy, classic, and delicious.<\/li>\n<li>Add a sprinkle of cheese to the batter and serve with maple syrup or a more savory topping, like a fried egg.<\/li>\n<li>Fresh or frozen raspberries make a bright addition to any pancake.<\/li>\n<li>Add a handful of chopped spinach to pancake batter and serve with a savory sauce (like mayo or yogurt spiked with spices). For festive all-green pancakes, blend the batter and spinach in a blender first.<\/li>\n<li>Almonds in any form\u2014chopped, extract, flour, amaretto syrup\u2014make regular pancakes seem elegant. Just add a small amount to the batter.<\/li>\n<li>Go autumnal with thinly sliced pears\u2014pour batter into the griddle, top with pears, and then flip.<\/li>\n<li>Toss a little cocoa powder in the batter with a little chopped chilli or chilli powder! Drizzle with chocolate and see who can handle the heat!<\/li>\n<li>Top with a\u00a0spoonful of orange marmalade and melted dark chocolate for a Jaffa Cake pancake.<\/li>\n<li>Add cocoa powder and red food coloring &#8211; and transferred them into red velvet pancakes.<\/li>\n<li>Replacing the milk with an equal amount of the Dr. Pepper\u00a0will produce dark and bubbly pancakes. You&#8217;ll be able to detect a hint of the flavours on the plain pancake, but just wait until you team it with sugar or ice cream.<\/li>\n<li>Added fine sea salt to caramel ice cream topping for a salted caramel pancake.<\/li>\n<li>Add some sour cream and a tad of sugar to the batter. For variety: brown sugar instead.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: \u00a0<\/strong>MOMables, Readers Digest, Good to Know, Chow Hound \u00a0(We love the internet!)<\/p>\n<div id=\"popup-embedded-box-pro-gfcr-4\" class=\"popup-embedded-box-pro-gfcr-4 popupally-pro-outer-embedded-plsbvs-4 class-placeholder-jehjsq-4\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know &#8211; pretty basic &#8211; it is on the box. \u00a0But sometimes the box is not there &#8211; wonder why???
