Mental note — do not make pancakes while Hot Fuzz is on the tele. The concept itself wasn’t bad, and I am referring to the breakfast, not the movie, although I love the movie. Anyhoo. . . I wanted to make a nice anniversary breakfast and came up with some Apple-Pecan pancakes (since I had to use up an apple and had some pecans in the freezer). Plus I had an apple syrup / extract that was leftover from a pie that was made a couple of weeks ago.

Tasty! Actually they tasted good. It's the newest thing -- blackened pancakes! And since it is the month of March, a college basketball bracket is always nearby.
Although a little charred, they didn’t taste bad. They just needed a little bit of extra syrup
At least these pancakes are great makeshift doggie treats.
