I happen to come across this unusual pancake recipe at food.com, which Meredith F originally posted the recipe. These pancakes are very good. Also, when making these pancakes, be sure to use real pure maple syrup.

Ingredients For maple-bacon pancakes

  • 12 slices
    bacon (l used a pound of bacon)
  • 2 cups
    flour
  • 2 tsp.
    baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp.
    baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp.
    salt
  • 2 cups
    low-fat buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup
    pure maple syrup, plus more for serving

How To Make maple-bacon pancakes

  • 1
    Cook bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels, then crumble bacon into pieces. Reserve drippings and wipe out skillet.
  • 2
    Preheat oven to 200 degrees. (Heat oven only if your going to keep pancakes warm.) I eliminated this process.
  • 3
    In a medium size bowl whisk together, the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • 4
    In another bowl whisk together, the buttermilk, maple syrup, eggs, and the unsalted butter. Add to flour mixture, and whisk until just combined (batter may have lumps).
  • 5
    Heat 1 teaspoon of the reserved bacon drippings in a skillet over medium-low heat. (I omitted using the bacon drippings, and for each pancake made, I added a teaspoon of Canola oil to the skillet.)
  • 6
    For each pancake, arrange some of the bacon pieces in a circle in skillet.
  • 7
    Slowly pour 1/3 cup of batter over the bacon, starting in center and moving outward in a swirling motion, to prevent bacon from shifting. Cook until small bubbles form on surface.
  • 8
    Flip, and cook until golden brown. Transfer finished pancakes to a baking sheet, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve pancakes with syrup.
