I’ll admit it. I’ve never been a huge pancake fan. Gimme a big bowl of piping-hot oatmeal or an oversized mug filled with Lucky Charms and I am a happy camper, that was until I tried one of Bryan’s from-scratch pancakes. I first experienced the pillowy goodness on my way to work, early one morning. Bryan had woke-up very early that morning to ski the pass (obviously) and had prepared pancakes before he left as pre-skiing fuel. Being the amazing boyfriend that he is, he lovingly left a warm pancake in the pan for me. Since I was in a huge rush that morning (as I often am), I only had time to throw the soft disc into a sandwich bag before running out the door. No syrup, no butter, no powdered sugar. The elusive naked pancake. As I was driving to work, I carefully removed the bag from my purse and tore off a bite-sized chunk to tide me over until I got to work to enjoy it to the fullest capacity. It was everything I never knew I wanted and everything I needed. It was soft, perfectly chewy, not too sweet and well…perfect. I got to work and devoured the entire thing in less than 2 minutes. The best part about these babies? They keep you satiated  for hours upon hours. Bryan has since made these 3 times and last weekend, I was able to capture their udder perfection on camera. Ahhhh, enjoy!
