Every Monday night when my kids were little we had breakfast for dinner. It was the one night we didn’t have one child sitting at the table for 30 minutes after the rest of us were finished staring at a serving of vegetables they didn’t want to eat!
We always love spreading a little peanut butter on top of our pancakes before dousing them with syrup. But mixing and heating the peanut butter and syrup together makes it into the delicious caramel-like syrup that we love!
