Pancakes are an iconic breakfast food found in every American household on saturday morning. Classic blueberry, and chocolate pancakes don't cut it anymore; It's time to ramp up this classic and start your weekend off right. This boozy-free, coconut-colada pancake contains rum extract, instead of liquor to provide that spiced rum flavor without the added alcohol. Using a bit of lime zest helps to round out, and brighten the coconut rum combo. One of the secrets to the perfectly browned pancake is to very lightly oil your griddle, and remove the excess. This provides even surface area for your pillowy pancakes to have a beautiful brow exterior to match. Welcome; to your new favorite pancake recipe.
