One of my favorite Christmas traditions has, and will always be, Christmas morning pancakes. We all gather around the table after presents have been ripped open, still in our pajamas with mimosas in hand. It’s a moment I revel in and look forward to every year. So when Krusteaz reached out to discuss being a part of the Krusteaz Gluten Free Blogger Bake Off and pancakes were an option, I jumped at the opportunity.
I don’t eat gluten free products often. I find them to mostly taste a bit like cardboard. So imagine my surprise when I found myself devouring this entire stack with the family. I of course doctored the pancakes up with chopped pecans, fresh blueberries and soaked them in butter and maple syrup. And I mean it doesn’t get any cuter than this polar bear maple syrup or the gingerbread man!! But I mean this when I say it, I really couldn’t get over that they were gluten free! And as if the pancakes weren’t proof enough Krusteaz sent over their brownie mix and it too was fantastic. Consider me a believer Krusteaz!
And with that, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and can revel in the moments and traditions that mean the most to you. Truly, MKR
