PB Pancakes

Yes, I made pancakes again. I made these pancakes with my husband specifically in mind. They are peanut butter pancakes. I had found some peanut powder at the store which I thought would add a nice flavor to the pancakes. Also, some of them had peanut butter chips but the chips tended to make the pan really messy. So, I had to whip it down after each batch. I really thought the kids would be excited about these pancakes but they were hesitant about trying them. Once they tried them, they loved them. To top them, I even microwaved some peanut butter which my husband mixed with maple syrup. He loved them. The kids loved them. These pancakes are definitely for a peanut butter lover.
