My husband doesn’t cook. He even burned a grilled cheese sandwich in the toaster oven – two times in a row! But he does make a mean pancake. Pancakes are such in institution in our house that we enjoy “Friday Pancakes” weekly.

After eating more pancakes in the past two years than any human should eat in a lifetime, I’ve learned how to jazz up pancakes. Here’s one of our favorite “recipes” just in time for the Fourth of July.

Patriotic Pancakes

Mix up the batter for your favorite pancake recipe. We’ve tried lots of brands and even a few homemade recipes and have concluded the Krusteaz brand is our favorite. (It’s also super cheap if you buy a big bag from Costco.) Fold in blueberries and top with raspberries or strawberries and whipped cream. Enjoy!
