Marshmallow Cinnamon Pancakes

(Click to view larger image)
Doesn't this look like a great breakfast? Nice fluffy pancakes, so rich you don't even need syrup!

What You'll Need:
  • 1 & 3/4 cups of flour (it can be all-purpose or wheat, it doesn't really matter)
  • 3 tablespoons white cane sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 & 1/2 cups of buttermilk, sour milk, or regular milk (I used whole milk that wasn't sour and the pancakes turned out fine)
  • 3 tablespoons cooking oil (I used vegetable oil, and the pancakes turned out fine)
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 & 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
Procedure:
  1. mix all ingredients in desired format (Some people mix dries and then add the liquids and egg, some just put it all together, etc. etc.)
  2. This recipe makes seven 5in. diameter pancakes, but you can make any size pancakes you want. (1/3 cup makes a 5in. diameter pancake, and 1/4 cup makes smaller mini pancakes)
  3. Top with powdered sugar, whipped cream, and/or butter.  Syrup if desired, but this recipe makes really sweet pancakes.
Enjoy!

Why Eat This?
Studies show that cinnamon may have a regulatory effect on blood sugar, which makes it especially good for people with type 2 Diabetes.  In some studies cinnamon has shown to stop medication-resistant yeast infections.

Not to mention, who doesn't want to wake up to a warm, sweet breakfast?  Start off your day with a breakfast like this and you'll probably be happier and less tired during the day.
