These Elvis Pancakes are banana peanut butter pancakes stuffed with peanut butter and bacon. These are the ultimate breakfast treat – made with only 4 ingredients!
If you haven’t tried it, let me set the scene: when creamy, drippy peanut butter meets crunchy bacon, the salty, nutty smoothness of the peanut butter perfectly compliments the smoky bacon. They’re both strong tastes, but they work harmoniously to create a delicious burst of flavor in your mouth. It’s such a scrumptious combo, on toast or in a sandwich, or especially…in these pancakes.
Bacon definitely tends to be a savory food, and peanut butter can swing either way (peanut sauce, anyone?), so the bananas help to bring these pancakes firmly into breakfast territory.
The pancakes themselves are SO easy thanks to Krusteaz‘s super simple, just-add-water pancake mix. Of course, I can’t leave it there, so I added water, banana, and peanut butter to my pancakes to make the flavors pop. The bacon and peanut butter aren’t actually mixed in the batter, but rather stuffed inside the pancakes!!!
These are the perfect indulgent back to school treat, or weekend breakfast extravaganza. They’re super yummy, a little different, and guaranteed to make the start of your day a good one. Enjoy!
