I am all about a good breakfast and so are the kiddos. They love it when it is brunch time or they get a cooked breakfast. So usually on the weekends or a day off from school I try to make them a cooked breakfast. Let’s be honest it’s hard to make a cooked breakfast while trying to get ready and out the door for school. I have no idea how my mom did. She made a cooked breakfast almost every morning, from pancakes to oatmeal.  We barely ever ate cereal. I remember those breakfasts. However as of now I don’t see that happening with these kids. We have a good system on getting this kids up and out the door so they aren’t late for school.

I made these pancakes for breakfast one morning They gobbled them up. I threw the leftovers in the freezer, for breakfast on a school morning. They are still homemade, jut not cooked that morning. They love this and we will be doing more of breakfasts like that. I know they need a change from cereal during the school week.

You can using any chocolate chips you want. I prefer the 60% cacoa baking chips, so the pancakes aren’t super sweet. Get your kids involved in making these with you, they will love the time they get to spend with you and the memories they make.

Letting the batter sit for 10 minutes, will help the pancakes to be light and fluffy. Cooked pancakes can be frozen up to two months.
