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!

reviews & comments
This recipe popped up just when I was wondering what to do with the last 1/2 cup of Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix and some frozen fruit. It inspired me to make a fruit pie with the two using the pancake as the top "crust." 30 minutes later - Voila! Just delicious! Another way to use pancake mix! I love your creative recipes!
