Champagne Pancakes

Now that 2016 is behind us, it’s time to start the New Year off right. Has anyone actually gone to the gym this week? I did! Now that we made it through week 1 of exercise and eating right, it’s time to celebrate, again, with Champagne Pancakes. Come on … you’re entitled to a cheat day, or two.

Leftover bottles of New Year’s champagne? No problem. Don’t put them away just yet. While you may have opted to just pour champagne into you morning glass of orange juice for an instant mimosa, consider saving some for your pancakes. Say what?? Yes! Boozy champagne pancakes. Before you write off champagne pancakes, you have to try them. The bubbles give the pancakes added fluffiness, while the champagne frosting is a fun substitute for syrup. You’ll find that it’s a similar consistency and just so fun with sprinkles on top! So pour yourself a mimosa and start your first weekend of 2017 off with a breakfast celebration.

I loved these pancakes so much, they may just become a new celebratory breakfast tradition. There are so many things to celebrate. Just think of the possibilities: Birthday Champagne Pancakes, Congrats on Your New Job Champagne Pancakes, Bridal Shower Champagne Pancakes, Valentine’s Day Champagne Pancakes, Graduation (College+) Champagne Pancakes, Wedding Day Champagne Pancakes, Just Bought A House Champagne Pancakes, My Best Friend Just Got Engaged Champagne Pancakes… the possibilities are endless. Call them whatever you want, as long as you’re celebrating.
