Fluffy Pancake recipe

We never need an excuse to make pancakes (our Skillet German Pancakes and Cornmeal Griddle Cakes and German are a family favorite)! But with National Pancake Day fast approaching, we couldn't resist making an extra special, boozy kind of stack to celebrate. These Peach Bourbon Pancakes are everything a decadent celebratory meal should be, punctuated with bacon and a splash of bourbon.

Making your own syrup is an easy way to elevate a simple stack of pancakes. Keith used Four Roses Bourbon, some juicy local peaches, bacon, and maple extract to create a one of a kind, unbelievable topping for our cozy fall breakfast stack. It's a grown up brunch that is truly delicious.
