BiscoffButtermilk Pancakes are light and fluffy, whole wheat, buttermilk pancakes made usingBiscoffSpread.
I am excited to tell you about something that I recently discovered. It’s made with all natural ingredients, is preservative-free, vegan, and nut free. It’s Biscoff Spread, and it’s fabulous! This sweet, creamy, decadent spread is perfect over toast, with apples slices, or simply grab a spoon and dig in!
Are you familiar with Biscoff Spread? Biscoff Spread is a new irresistible, spreadable European treat made from Biscoff Cookies. The consistency is similar to peanut butter, and it can be used in many recipes. In fact, there are so many delicious recipes using Biscoff, I have a dedicated Biscoff board on Pinterest.
Of course when I got my hands on a jar, I was excited to try it in lieu of peanut butter in some of my favorite recipes (though it was hard to resist eating it straight from the jar!) The results were fabulous! Today I am sharing one of our favorites –Biscoff Buttermilk Pancakes. This recipe is adapted from my Peanut Butter Pancakes recipe. They are light and fluffy, made with whole wheat flour and buttermilk, and best of all….Biscoff Spread! To top them off, I made a Biscoffdrizzle which was sooo good!
