Flap JacksPancakes are a favorite breakfast food in the Diva household but for me personally I hate the taste of a boxed mix. It is just so plain and boring so here are a few tips to turn the boring box pancake mix into fluffy, delicious circles of pancake heaven that your family can’t resist.

Here is the recipe I made for the pancakes you see in the photo

1 cup Aunt Jemima pancake mix
3/4 cup water
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp organic sugar

Whip it up and cook pancakes like you normally would. You can adapt this recipe to any of your favorite boxed pancake mixes. Follow the directions on any box of pancake mix and add the last 3 ingredients (egg, vanilla extract, and sugar) to make your pancakes awesome!

Let me know what you think if you make this recipe. What do you do to make your pancakes special? Do you add fresh fruit or chocolate chips? Do you make funny shapes, like mickey mouse? Do you make HUGE pancakes or little silver dollar pancakes? What is your flap jack preference?

One fun fact about the way that I eat my pancakes: I don’t eat pancakes with butter and my syrup has to be on the side for dipping. A soggy pancake is not a good pancake, in my opinion anyway.
