I visited my brother recently and he introduced me to this concoction which I have now completely fallen in love with. It apparently all originated with a friend of his who is a good cook and enjoys coming up with new dishes. There is very little to actually say about this breakfast marvel, but I wanted to share it anyway just because I like it so much.
The idea is simple and the title has already told you almost everything there is to tell. Putting things into pancakes is not even close to a new idea, but I had never heard of this particular set of additives before. The pancake batter is made however you normally make it and before dropping dollops of it onto a hot skillet, butterscotch chips (like the kind you put in cookies - same as chocolate chips only they’re butterscotch flavored) and some crushed pecans. The butterscotch chips add the sweetness that I loved in the chocolate-chip pancakes of my youth and the pecans add a satisfying crunch as well as a feeling of sophistication that surpasses even the classy, fruit-infused flap-jacks served at country clubs.
Overall, if you enjoy bread-derived breakfast foods, have a somewhat youthful sweet-tooth, and appreciate a rather contrived feeling of refinement, then grab a cup of coffee or your favorite fruit juice (or maybe chocolate milk?) and enjoy.
