This is a really easy recipe that can be put together at the last minute. My kids love this dish topped with pure maple syrup, but the toppings you can add are endless!

I first ate pannukakku while living in Finland on a religious mission. It tastes something like a mix between a German pancake and custard. In Finland, it is usually served as a dessert with jam on top, but we like to eat it for breakfast with pancake syrup on top as well. It is now my kids' favorite breakfast and is requested regularly.

This fruity shrimp scampi has a citrus kick.

Shrimp scampi is served over broccoli noodles for a keto-friendly meal. Garnish with Parmesan and additional basil if desired.

Apples are sautéed in butter with brown sugar and cinnamon until tender. The warm syrup from the apples is delicious and great on homemade waffles. You may add raisins to the sauce if desired.

A delicious Instant Pot dinner made in under 30 minutes (including prep and time to reach pressure)! My family likes to eat this light and buttery shrimp with linguini, but you can skip the pasta and make this a delicious low-carb or keto meal with vegetables on the side. Garnish with additional green onions.

This cinnamon apple syrup, simply simmers apples with sugar and cinnamon. It makes a great sundae topping over vanilla ice cream, or as a pancake topping! Adjust cinnamon and sugar to taste.

This is a great date night meal! It will make a ton of leftovers, so you can send some home with your boo. I make this with a decent bottle of Sauvignon Blanc because the acidity in the wine pairs well with the lemon juice and the fresh cut grass-like aromas of the asparagus. Chill the rest of the bottle and have it with your meal! Remember to always use a wine that you enjoy the flavor of by itself if you're going to cook with it because the food takes on the flavor of the wine.

Finally a whole wheat pancake recipe that my kids gobbled up like they were going out of style! Spiced with fall flavor (apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and a hint of vanilla). These were so awesome, we had to share! I live at 4800 ft above sea level and cooked them at 375 degrees F.

A wonderfully delicious breakfast! With sweet bits of apple and a tangy apple cider syrup topping, these are not your momma's pancakes! The syrup is a little time-consuming to make, but well worth it!

Very simple Scampi, but very sweet and tasty.

Einkorn is an ancient variety of wheat, and I find einkorn flour to be just as versatile as all-purpose flour. I make these deliciously fluffy einkorn pancakes with apple and cinnamon, but you could get creative and add a variety of fruits and nuts for an equally delicious result.

Nice, hearty pancakes that will fill you up on less sugar than regular pancakes. The smaller you cut up the apples the faster they will cook. You can substitute 2 instant oatmeal packets for the quick oats, if desired.

Quick, easy, and delish! Serve one bundle to each person with some good crusty bread to dip in juices.

Racuchy are Polish pancakes that are super popular as a dessert in Poland, but I make them for breakfast here for my kids. Serve sprinkled with powdered sugar or topped with sour cream.

Served with warm maple syrup these hearty apple pancakes with that hint of bacon and bourbon were quite the hit for our first chilly fall Sunday morning breakfast!
