How to make bacon pancakes

First, you’re going to want to cook up your bacon! I used nitrate and sugar-free bacon from TruLocal, which is a Canadian company that connects you with high quality local meat. Use code DENISE7297 at checkout to save $25 on your first box!

You can either bake your bacon in the oven, or cook it up in a skillet. If you go the skillet route you may want to collect the bacon fat for frying up your pancakes to get some extra bacony flavor 😍

cool & chop up bacon. set aside.
stir together all wet ingredients.
add in the dry ingredients.
fold in dat bacon!
cook up 1/4 cup portions (use leftover bacon grease if you have it)

ENJOY!

Which kind of bacon works best in these pancakes? Any type of bacon will work well! You can use turkey bacon, maple bacon, whatever you’ve got! I loved using nitrate and sugar-free bacon from TruLocal.

Can I swap the flour for XYZ? This recipe works with white whole wheat flour or regular all purpose flour. 100% whole wheat flour ends up gummy in pancakes and almond flour does not work for this recipe. I have not tested gluten-free flour.

Can I make this bacon pancakes recipe ahead? Yes! We store them in meal prep containers in the fridge or freezer, then pop in the toaster when we’re ready to enjoy!

Which toppings go well with this bacon pancakes recipe? Maple syrup, fresh strawberries, and extra bacon.

Tips & equipment for making bacon pancakes

use a non-stick pan (this is my basic Non-Stick Pan) or a large non-stick skillet; I measure my pancakes out in a simple 1/4 cup measuring cup
