3 Ways to Spice Up Waffles + Pancakes This Season

October 25, 2019 · In: Recipes

Hey y’all! Today I am going to be doing a post that’s a bit different for me. I’m going to share three ways that you can spice up your favorite waffle or pancake recipe! All of these are super easy and probably won’t require any special shopping trips! There is nothing better than waffles for breakfast during the fall, and who can resist breakfast for dinner??

Now I’m not going to provide a base recipe because first of all, I’m not a chef lol. Also, I’m a box mix gal because I’ve tried many recipes and honestly they never are as good lol. But I figure everyone has their own way to make waffles or pancakes and some people may have food allergies. Anyway, enough with my excuses… Let’s get into it!

Apples & Cinnamon

This is a “recipe” I’ve been making for a year or so now. It add great texture and makes you feel a tad less guilty about eating something so sugary since it has fruit in it lol. Plus, this is amazing for fall! The amount of ingredients obviously depends on how much apple you want and how much you’re making. But chop up the apple(s) in to tiny cubes (around 1/4 inch) and add to your mix. Then, just sprinkle in some cinnamon to taste! I always add a bit of vanilla to my pancake and waffles mixes as well.

P.S. Did you see the pumpkins on my waffles? This waffle maker is only $10! You can get one from Amazon (prime eligible), Bed Bath & Beyond, Crate & Barrel, and even Target.

Chocolate & Cream Cheese

Not gonna lie, I have a HUGE sweet tooth. Chocolate chip waffles and pancakes are my go-to when we’re talking “specialty breakfast.” Just add your favorite chocolate (make sure if it’s a bar it’s chopped up), and throw in about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese for every cup of batter. Mix it all up and you’re good to go! As I said before, I also add vanilla to my batter. And I honestly think the cream cheese would be delicious in the apple cinnamon recipe as well.

Banana & Cinnamon

I know a lot of people make “pancakes” with banana as the main batter ingredient. I’m personally not a fan of those, but I love adding some banana to my pancakes and waffles! I personally recommend a really ripe banana, like when you’re making banana bread. Basically the more brown spots, the better. Mash it up into your mix, and add some cinnamon & vanilla to taste. It legit tastes like banana bread y’all! I also think this would be great with cranberries, walnuts, or even chocolate chips added to it. Get creative!

I hope y’all enjoyed this little post! I know it’s a bit different, but I got this idea and decided to run with it. Let me know if you’d like to see more posts like this. Feel free to leave a comment with post recommendations or what you like to add to your pancakes and waffles! If you make any of these be sure to post it on your Instagram story and tag me, @TheNorthernPrepster.

Thanks for reading!

xoxo
Jayme

While we didn’t have the best beach weather last While we didn’t have the best beach weather last weekend, we still managed to soak up some sun☀️🌊

The best part of any beach trip is showering after a long day in the water and throwing on your favorite sun dress with your fresh tan🤍 I am obsessed with this new one I snagged for only $35 - plus the perfect purse to match🐚

Genuinely if I have $1 for every time I’ve been told I “don’t belong in Western PA” - I’d have enough money to move to the southern city of my choosing😂 But seriously - I’ve gotten these comments since I was in middle school! 

I’ve heard it said PA is 10 years behind on fashion👀 I can confirm people don’t understand me or my Lorna Murray hat I bought back in 2022👒

Getting vulnerable for a second: I love creating content and blogging but photographing myself lately, especially on this trip, has been rough for my self-esteem. While curating this post I was second guessing even posting these pictures because I didn’t like the way my body looked. Over the past month I’ve been on a regimen of medications that have thrown my body through a loop have had me not feeling myself. Even a “healthy” diet and daily exercise can’t reverse the side effects I’m experiencing and it’s been hard for me to reconcile that. In this process I’ve been reminding myself I don’t look at others around me or people I follow online and analyze their bodies or looks. 

So this is your reminder that we’re overthinking ourselves more than others are thinking about us. And it’s easier said than done, but give yourself grace through all seasons of life🤍
