Add chocolate chips and drizzle them with coconut cream syrup or heated marshmallow cream. Chocolate chips work best in pancakes if you use mini chocolate chips. If you use larger chips, use milk chocolate chips.
2. Add other baking chips. They work great too. We love cinnamon chip pancakes. Peanut butter chips and butterscotch chips work well. For the kids, add some rainbow chips.
3. You can buy raspberry, strawberry, and blueberry tidbits online to make terrific pancakes. Consider making them even more flavorful with a teaspoon of raspberry, strawberry, or blueberry flavor.
4. Make peanut butter and jam pancakes. Melt a half cup of peanut butter in the microwave and add that to your batter along with a half cup full of chopped peanuts. Serve with your favorite jam or jelly. If you want to get the kids excited, serve them with cherry bubblegum jelly available on the internet.
5. Any dry fruit and nut combination will work. One of our favorites is dry cranberries and walnut pieces. Add a couple teaspoons of maple or brown sugar flavoring.
6. Make apple and walnut pancakes. Grate a granny smith apple and add that to the batter. Rev up the flavor with a teaspoon of apple flavor available online.
7. Top your pancakes with a scoop of marshmallow cream. You can make a supply of marshmallow cream and store it in the refrigerator. We have recipes for chocolate, vanilla, cherry, and strawberry marshmallow cream on our web site.
