Gingerbread Pancakes make for an easy and delicious Christmas morning breakfast! Actually, these would be perfect anytime during the holidays!
Christmas Breakfast
What do you have for Christmas Breakfast? We always have Cinnamon Pull Aparts, sausage links and chocolate milk. But I’ve been trying to have a fun tradition for Christmas Eve breakfast and I think I found it with these Gingerbread Pancakes!
They have the right amount of holiday spices and are super fluffy! I actually like to make these towards the beginning of December and double, sometimes triple the batch. I cook them all, let them cool and then stack them into freezer bags. I keep them on hand in the freezer so my family can enjoy a quick homemade breakfast in the morning.
You can easily reheat 2 or 3 at a time in the microwave for about 1 minute.
The freezer trick can even be a time saver and do this in preparation for Christmas Morning.
