Can you smell what the g33k is cooking?

We are a pancake family.  I love French toast a bit better than pancakes, but we can keep that between us. *wink

Last weekend during g33kapalooza, I whipped up the truly mouth-watering and decadent Nutella stuffed French toast.  It requires a little bit more effort than quick and easy, but it’s definitely not labor intensive.  The hardest part is waiting for the french toast to bake.  These rich and uber-tasty stuffed breakfast sandwiches are not for every day, but for a nice brunch I think they are a must!  I suggest serving these with real maple syrup, bacon (real or veggie) fresh berries and mimosas.

I had every intention of making brunch this morning.  A visit a while back to Bakerella’s site (one of my favorite sites), I was determined to make the blueberry pancakes with orange maple butter that she made at the end of June.  Lingering exhaustion and a long list of to-do’s meant I was not able to make brunch.  It was more like brinner, but it was worth the wait.

I did alter the recipe a bit, and will alter it further when I make these again. And, oh yes, I will make these again. I felt like the batter was a little too poofy. We like thinner pancakes that are a bit crispier at the edges. I’m thinking that adding more buttermilk will help with this. They were still completely wonderful, make no mistake.

So what do you think of our Sunday Brinner? Are you hungry yet??
