Like these pancakes which I topped with a whipped cream cheese topping (SO GOOD!).What are some of your favorite Christmas morning breakfasts?? I remember always having my mom’s Swedish Tea Ring. She would make it every year and try to hide it hoping it would make it for breakfast!How do you make Gingerbread Pancakes?They are actually quite easy! These are a made from scratch pancake but trust me they aren’t any harder to make than that store bought mix.I start by mixing all the dry ingredients in a large bowl with a whisk. This way it gets all those spices evenly distributed. Then I add in the wet and stir with a spatula just until everything is combined and no more.You don’t want to overmix pancakes or they will be tough. If you still see a few small pockets of flour that is ok, I promise!I like to top these pancakes with pure maple syrup and my kids love adding the whipped cream cheese, sprinkles, and a gingerbread man cookie. I know it seems like a lot, but it’s Christmas so we indulge.Be sure to hop on over to Walking On Sunshine Recipes to check out what she is making for the festival!Christmas DIYs on Monday Joy In Our Home | 2 Bees In A Pod | My Creative DaysCounty Road 407 | Chatfield Court Christmas Front Porches on Tuesday The Tattered Pew | The Crowned Goat | Little BragsFollow The Yellow Brick Home | The Painted Hinge Christmas Recipes on Wednesday Crisp Collective | Love In My Oven | Countryside CravingsWalking On Sunshine Recipes | Beyond The Butter Christmas Mantles on Thursday anderson + grant | White Arrows Home | Elizabeth Joan Designs City Girl Meets Country Boy | Red Brick On The Lake Christmas Tablescapes on Friday The Inspired Hive | Curly Crafty Mom | Making It In The MountainsRain and Pine | Timeless Creations5 from 4 votes PrintGingerbread PancakesPrep Time10 minsCook Time20 minsTotal Time30 mins These fluffy Gingerbread Pancakes are the perfect breakfast or brunch for Christmas morning!
