I might be an oatmeal girl most days of the week, but pancakes and other sweet treats will always have a special place in my heart. Often, when we go on vacation, we will try to balance breakfast with an egg white omelet and a side of donuts, pancakes or waffles. We all deserve to start the day with a treat every now and again! Inspired by my love of all things dessert, I even started a Pinterest board for breakfasts that taste like dessert. Since I’m sure I’m not alone, I’ve rounded up almost 30 sweet treats for breakfast and included them below:
Brown Butter Cinnamon Rolls from the Baker Chick
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Glazed Pancakes for One from Healthy Food for Living
Crème Brulee French Toast from That Skinny Chick can Bake
