The inspiration to try out this recipe came from Denny's! Yes, the diner Denny's. The hubs, daughter and I went to Denny's for a Sunday brunch not too long ago and they had a new item on their menu..Cranberry Orange pancakes and it sounded yummy. So I went ahead and ordered it and loved it. So of course, it was time to try it out at home a week or two later. So here's what I came up with..
(Will post the picture as soon as I can upload )
Prep Time: 10 minutes (for about 7 pancakes)
Serves: 2.5 (the half for a toddler)
Ingredients: Pancake mix - 1 cup, Dried cranberries - 1/2 cup, Orange zest - 1 tsp, Orange Juice - 1 Tbsp, Butter - 1-2 tsp
Cook Away...
> Make the pancake batter from the mix according to the instructions on the package
> Add the zest of a fresh orange to the batter
> Add freshly squeezed orange juice
> Mix the batter so everything combines well
> Add the dried cranberries and fold in gently
> Heat a girdle or pan on stove top and add the butter
> Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for one pancake
> Enjoy it with some maple syrup (or even without the syrup...since there is so much flavor in the pancake you will not miss the syrup on this one!)
Yum-my!
