I can’t say enough about this “duh” recipe as I like to call it! First of all there’s the whole..set it and forget it thing, especially when you have all those hungry relatives gathered around your kitchen.
You literally, start this a few hours before you’re ready to eat (depending on your size/temp of slow cooker), and the most AMAZING breakfast you’ve EVER had is waiting for you.
OMG…just imagine for a moment, diving into a pool of sweet, fluffy, maple soaked, melty buttery Pancakes that are moist, tender and EASY! AND, you go in head-first!
That about sums it up! Each scoop of this Pancake morning miracle is heaven on Earth, and in your tummy! As a bonus you didn’t even have to stand over a griddle and flip, stack & serve like a crazy person. Yep..everyone gets equally warm Pancakes..lol! 🙂
Just DO this…GO!
What you’ll need:
A Crock-Pot…Large or small, cooking time will VARY!
Pancake Mix…your regular batter mixed according to the box instructions. Use the amounts that will work for your number of mouths to feed. 🙂
Syrup…1 cup for the Batter + enough for drizzling on the top
Butter..for the top
Directions:
In a large bowl mix up your Pancake batter…stir in one cup of Maple Syrup…
Pour the syrupy batter into your Crock-Pot and set it according to your particular amount and time…
Add an extra drizzle of Syrup over the batter for good luck, if you’d like…lol
Now..set it and forget it.
It’s done when it’s all cooked through, soft, tender and irresistible!
When it’s ready and while it’s warm..add Syrup and BUTTER…
Scoop that baby up and look at the moist, scrumptious Pancake perfection about to grace your lips…
But first..more Syrup…
Time to share this beautiful Breakfast…
There’s even enough for seconds/thirds…
OR one GIANT scoop for you! ~Enjoy! 🙂
Wow, it’s 8am and I wish I had thrown this in my crock pot last night! Sigh…..
How long did you cook this in your crock pot? I’m assuming 8 hrs on low?
Thanks so much for sharing!
Chris..my crock-pot is small and it literally only took like 2 hours on high for my amount~ you still have time..lol! Turn it up and it will go fast! 🙂
I have a big crockpot but there is only two of us . can I do just half the crockpot & oh by the way how long do you cook it for & is it on low I would assume so.
Just check it after an hour or so, if it’s shallow filled. 🙂
Have you ever started one of these the night before?
My crock-pot was a bit small..so I did it during the morning. 🙂
Sounds like a great idea! I’m going to try this this week, but I was wondering if it would work with sugar free/light or maybe a mixture of sugar free and normal for the cooking part? Thanks!
I would NOT recommend doing this overnight! I tried this recipe last night, started it at 7:30pm, put it on the lowest possible heat for 10 hours (the longest my crock pot would let me do), and when I went to serve it up at 6am it was burned beyond recognition.
Yeah…10 hours seems a bit too long, for any brand of crock pot.
I am a bit confused. At the top is says start the night before but in the comments it talks about only taking 1 – 2 hours. Have you made this the night before?
On low before bed (depending on your size crock pot and amounts! 🙂 OR, On high for a 2-3 hours also depending on your size crock pot and amounts! It is confusing since all crock pots are different and amounts/servings can vary! 🙂 Maybe test a batch first, just to be safe! Hope you love it! 🙂
Since the directions are variable on the size of the crockpot I may be asking a silly question. I don’t see a picture of the crockpot covered while cooking, do you use the cover on the crockpot during the cooking time? I’m doubting that it would cook without it.
Covered. 🙂
“You literally, start this before bed on low, and wake up to the most AMAZING breakfast you’ve EVER had.”
I only sleep for 6 hours, and trying this, on low, overnight, just results in a burnt mess.
“A Crock-Pot…Large or small, cooking time will VARY!”
i love how no one paid attention to the 1’time may vary”. i have a tiny crock pot and im doing this as a breakfast for dinner deal. the kid will freak bc pancakes are heaven to him!!
Lol…hope you all enjoy it, breakfast for dinner is awesome! 🙂
I like to add sausage to my pancakes when cooking like this. Will this work in the crock pot too?
Am I reading correctly? Make the batter according to directions plus add and extra 1 cup of syrup? Does this make the batter runny and take longer to bake?
