COOK'S NOTES:
*Turkey bacon can be substituted with turkey sausage or deli-sliced ham
My kids LOVE these, and they are great cooked the night before and heated for 15-30 seconds in the microwave for a quick breakfast on the go! For an even more special treat, try dipping in some sugar-free pancake syrup!
ADDITION: Instead of just dipping in syrup, try adding 3Tbs syrup to the pancake batter, so that sweet goodness is baked right in!
