Age Old Question…Pancake or Crepe?

IMG_1745IMG_1737

Sunday morning always starts the same way, “What would you like for breakfast?”  On every other day of the week there is never any time to make something worth sitting down at the table to enjoy, but on Sundays everything changes and you have infinite choices.  Most Sundays I end up deciding between pancakes or crepes.  Both options have their own merit, one is light and fluffy and the other is thin and crispy.  Both can be mixed and filled with different flavors and both can be topped with different sauces.  I used to think that one could be sweet and the other could be savory…that was until I discovered bacon pancakes!!!  My mind was blown and my taste buds exploded, talk about a great combination of sweet and savory.

For me, the determining factor is how full do I want to be?  Last week I wanted a lighter breakfast and decided to make crepes filled with a variety of tastes: cookie butter and chocolate swirl, raspberry preserves and raspberry, peach, champagne jam.  All were delicious but since I am a sucker for chocolate, I have to say that the chocolate swirl was my favorite!

Next week I will probably have pancakes just so that I don’t repeat myself too often.  Stay tuned…
