Sunshine Pancakes

Today is a special day that needed a special breakfast. {happy birthday to my wee one}

This recipe came from my cute cousin, Melissa. She is QUITE the cook. Remember the life-saving mint brownies? Same girl. 

These are really good and DIFFERENT. They have orange juice in them which gives them a taste of citrus and turns the pancakes a happy little orange. So, we renamed them to Sunshine Pancakes. They taste like something you'd get a quaint little diner.

What a great way to start a great day! Thanks My-Lisa.

Enjoy!

1 1/2 c. milk

2 eggs

1/4 c. butter, melted

1/4 c. orange juice

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

2 c. flour

1/4 c. brown sugar

1 tsp. salt

4 tsp. baking powder

Put all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl in order listed (make sure the baking powder is on top!) and mix just until blended and not lumpy anymore. After its mixed it will bubble up a bit--don't mix it any more. Gently scoop batter by 1/3 cup-full on griddle and bake. Makes about 12 pancakes.
