Snickers Pancakes

Snickers Pancakes have chopped candy bars in the batter and a decadent Snickers syrup. This is a pancake breakfast you won’t soon forget.

Every year for my daughter’s birthday I make her special birthday pancakes for breakfast. Over the years I’ve made Cake Batter Pancakes, Double Stuff Oreo Pancakes, and Peanut Butter Cup Pancakes. This year she requested Snickers Pancakes.

I think she got a little hooked on Snickers bars after I bought a bunch to make Snickers Caramel Apple Salad. Ordinarily I only buy them for Halloween.

Snickers Pancakes Recipe

As a base I started with my favorite pancake batter recipe but reduced the sugar some. I added chopped up Snickers bars to the batter.

For a sauce, I melted 3 chopped up Snickers bars with a little heavy cream. Then I mixed in some maple syrup so it would qualify as a pancake syrup and not a sauce.  😉

Plus I thought it would taste more breakfasty that way.

And it was a huge hit with the birthday girl who I can’t believe is now 16. She’s almost grown but I’m hoping she’ll want birthday pancakes for many, many more years.

How To Make:

1. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Whisk together the wet ingredients in a second bowl.
3. Mix. Add the two together, stirring just enough to combine.
4. Add in the chopped snickers bars.
5. Cook the pancakes on a griddle or in a nonstick skillet.
6. Make the syrup.
