Broke Brunch: Mini Banana-Berry Nutella Pancake Stackers
I was looking for something quick and easy for a brunch at home this past Saturday. I looked in the pantry and saw the glorious shakable bottle of Bisquick pancake mix & the crack in a jar, AKA, Nutella. ( I said I quit the stuff but I guess I’m back on 😓). This recipe is totally worthy of your fav brunch spot. All you need to do is invite some friends over and add mimosas to complete the afternoon!

Any who, I heated my pan and poured 4 small circles of the mix. I had originally set out to make regular size pancakes but I was too lazy to lug out the griddle and who doesn’t love mini pancakes?!
While the lil babies were bubbling I decided I should probably add some fruit to this thing. Nutella just has a way of making me feel guilty. I cut up some banana and a couple of strawberries then flipped my pancakes. Multitasking is key!
Once each pancake was done, I plated it and immediately smeared Nutella on to the steaming pancake. There’s nothing like ooey gooey chocolate goodness, at that point it’s basically fondue . Yummm!
Next, I made a neat little layer of banana and strawberry then another pancake hot off the griddle, more Nutella, then fruit. I did 3 layers total.
I topped the whole thing off with more than a dollop of whip cream and a sprinkling of chia seeds ( the Nutella guilt got me again).
I must say that two stackers were quite satisfying and I was full till lunch.
Thanks for reading,
