I think we can all agree that you physically can’t be upset when you’re eating a good stack of pancakes. It’s like how you naturally smile when you say “cheese,” it’s just a fact. So, I’m not trying to brag, but I’m pretty much sharing a recipe for happiness… #nobigdeal. These light, fluffy bites are filled with crisp granola and finished with fresh peach slices. Bonus: if you’re feelin’ extra jazzy (like I was) you can drizzle some almond butter on top. Yeah, this flavor/texture trifecta is never to be messed with.
I’m bringing this recipe for happiness to you as a part of mini series with the lovely folks at Pyknic, an apparel company that sells fantastic foodie t-shirts. Whenever I wear my “Pancakes Please” tank, which incidentally is quite a lot, I always think of Amanda Bynes saying “Amanda Pleaase.”
Poor poor Amanda. She is a prime example why I would never wish fame on my worst enemy. I have huge amounts of respect for the celebrities who keep it together under all of that pressue… and plenty of sympathy for those who… don’t. How insane it would be to have random herds of strangers in your face 24/7 wherever you go? As an introvert that literally sounds like my worst nightmare *shudders.*
