Last night I did something totally indulgent.
Last night, I took a book to bed – and it wasn’t one filled with coding mambo jumbo (like I’ve been doing since I started that web development course).
Last night it was a succulent, totally fictitious, murder-mystery that was a pleasure to indulge in – at least, until my eyelids decided not to co-operate anymore.
I find it funny how most times a textbook (no matter how badly I might actually want to learn what am reading) manages to put me to sleep.
But, when it comes to a murder-mystery, I resort to all sorts of shenanigans to try to stay awake to read just one more page. Please tell me am not the only one…?!
Anyhoot…speaking of indulging…
It’s been quite awhile since we had pancakes around here.
So, when I finally opened up the bottle of Oregon Growers’ Marionberry Preserves I brought back from our trip to Oregon earlier in June, I figured it would be more indulgent to add the preserves into the pancake batter as opposed to on the pancakes.
Now, I’ve grown up eating pancakes smeared with jams and preserves – which are accompanied by the odd drizzle of golden syrup or honey from time to time. So, adding the preserves into the batter simply made sense. Also, you will notice that sugar isn’t listed as one of the ingredients because between the preserves and Premier Protein‘s Vanilla Shake, sugar isn’t really necessary. Of course, with Premier Protein in these pancakes – these pancakes are not merely indulgent but protein packed as well. I also kept these gluten-free by using brown rice flour in them, but, please feel free to sub regular brown flour if preferred.

I have never really branched out and put any unusual ingredients in my pancakes! I just usually add cinnamon and some vanilla to mine, and have tried blueberries, strawberries and bananas. Oh and I have substituted hazelnut coffee creamer instead of milk and it was absolutely delicious! I am definitely going to try your recipe as well, yummy! 🙂
What a gorgeous stack of pancakes! Let me tell you, I’m eating my bowl of cereal right now and it doesn’t look anywhere near as appetizing as it did when I saw these! Love that coconut cream topping! I’m seriously drooling over it! I hope you and your family are having a wonderful week so far, Shashi! Hugs. Pinned, of course!
I’ve replaced whole milk with chocolate milk and added chocolate chips to mine before!
I heart marionberries, and I love that you added them to the batter — I much prefer my pancake and waffle fruit inside. Other than that I’m a purist. 🙂
I added blueberry pie filling and sour cream.
I have added bacon and scrambled eggs. I’m not sure if its considered unusual but it was to my kids.
I have added loads of different ingredients, including bananas and walnuts, raisins, Apple cinnamon pie filling, and maple with bacon… I love trying new things!!
Loving that big stack!! We have never tried this type of preserves before but sounds delicious. A murder mystery sounds much more interesting than web developing course, for sure.
Probably the brown rice flour!
I’ve never heard of marionberry! I like to put cinnamon and raisins in my pancakes.
i love pancakes omg its my biggest weakness. i think the weirdest thing i’ve ever added to my pancakes was carrots lol. i mean when your a bodybuilding competitor and your extremely depleted and haven’t had anything “regular” you used to have like for example carrots. i haven’t had carrots in 2 years crazy but true. you start experimenting with foods. because you crave them of course. so i thought ok i can’t have a carrot cake so i’ll try carrot pancakes. i must say it wasn’t bad at all lol
Peanut butter!
You need to read a textbook about murder-mysteries. 🙂 Anyway, this looks great — tons of flavor and nutrition. Thanks!
Hot pepper jelly adds zing!
When I was younger, I could easily spend a night reading a book. Either books ain’t fascinating anymore or I’m too old, but I don’t remember doing it for ages. But these pancakes look and sound quite fascinating, Shashi! Our neighbors have a huge marionberry tree with the berries ripening, and I’ve noticed they aren’t picking the berries. Do you think I should help them? 😉
Not really unusual, but I’ve added cinnamon to my pancake mix.
