Pancakes for breakfast: Yay or Nay?

[PingSpike]

When I was growing up, pancakes were always this great big treat reserved only for sunday morning breakfast. And to this day when some one makes them for me I automatically think "Whoa, pancakes!"

But then it occured to me a couple months: I don't even like pancakes...They're doughy with a poor flavor and the only thing that makes them edible is when you cover them with butter and syrup. Waffles are a little better, and french toast is just worlds away. But pancakes...despite their idolized position, are actually just plain crap.

not as big pancake fan. but if i do eat them I prefer peanut butter + butter rather than syrup.

French Toast, Waffles and then Pancakes would be my order. However I enjoy all 3.

I don't fancy pancakes either. I usually make them thin enough and end up with something like a crape. I usually make 2 and then sandwich orange marmelade w/ PB. Mmmm mmm

Pancake + semi-sweet chocolate , some fruit jam, maybe, but I don't like syrup or butter.

if you don't have pure maple syrup on them then pancakes suck. none of that Aunt Gemima crap :thumbsdown:

I like pancakes but they take too long to make. I'm much more likely to have them for dinner.

I really love pancakes, and I agree with that woah feeling... They were and still are rare in my house. I mostly only have pancakes at night in a diner when there's nothing else open.

To pre-empt the inevitable: "Those in glass houses..."

We had them almost every Saturday growing up. Now my wife and I have them but not quite Every saturday. But still pretty often. But no other days and no other meals, just staurday breakfast.

And we always pour the batter and then drop in chocolate chips and every so often blue berries or something. Mmmmm

We just use the good old Bisquick recipe too. No expensive pancake mixes or anything.

I prefer waffles.

Pancakes and bunnies. Nothing beats that combo.
