Healthy Pancake Breakfast Board

I decided to get a little bit of a running head start this year on Valentine's Day prep, so I started to brainstorm a few creative breakfast ideas. However, I came to the conclusion that some of the BEST and MOST memorable breakfasts are simply the ones with our favorite foods... fresh fruit, crispy bacon, and fluffy pancakes. Then, BAM! The Healthy Pancake Breakfast Board was born.

There is truly only 3 big steps involved:

1. Whip up your favorite pancake recipe. (I also have my healthy oat flour pancake recipe below for y'all to use, if you wish)
2. Add a salty, savory component. (Examples: bacon, hash browns, eggs... Continue reading for instructions on how to make the CRISPIEST bacon)
3. Pile on your favorite pancake toppings (Examples: almond or peanut butter, chocolate hazelnut spread, maple syrup, honey, fresh fruit, whip cream)

It's THAT EASY! Aesthetically-pleasing, crowd-pleasing, soul-satisfying... LOL

This is a BRILLIANT alternative to a charcuterie board for Valentine's Day and perfect for a Galentine's Day celebration with your besties.

Now, the real question... how do you make the CRISPIEST BACON EVER?

• Try cooking your slices on a wire baking rack over a large baking pan (to capture the grease) at 400F for 12-15 minutes for perfectly crispy bacon!

Now, it's time to turn our charcuterie obsession into a new pancake breakfast board obsession!
